Here again, DRE machines are different from ballot marking systems. It is not
always clear in ballot marking systems, what the “voting station” is. With
clarification, this is a positive requirement that should be kept for all systems. We
recommend the following: “A DRE system shall, in the presence of the voter,
mark the paper record as being accepted by the voter or spoiled. A ballot marking
system shall provide a means or procedure for an election official, in the presence
of the voter, to accept a ballot (such as scanning it or placing it in a ballot box) or
to mark a ballot as spoiled.” | |
