Comment :  Discussion
As drafted, it can appear that this requirement is not consistent with the discussion
that follows immediately below:
“The electronic record cannot hide any information related to ballot
choices; all information relating to ballot choices must be equally present
in both records. The electronic record may contain other items that don't
necessarily need to be on the paper record, such as digital signature
information.”
If the paper record contains “all information” then it is inconsistent to say that the
“electronic record may contain other items.”
