| Section : | 2.2.7 | Page no. : | 2-28 | Line no.: | 7 | Comment : | 5.2 If a voting station provides sound cues as a method to alert the voter, the tone shall be accompanied by a visual cue. and then further under:
"Discussion: For instance, the station might beep if the voter attempts to overvote."
This is in contradiction with Section 2.2.7, 1.3, page 2-43:
1.3 As mandated by HAVA 301 (a)(1)(C), the voting system shall notify the voter of an attempted overvote in a way that preserves the privacy of the voter and the confidentiality of the ballot.
A beep can be heard by everybody so no confidentiality, unless the tone is only heard through the headphones. | |
