Comment:
Allows the voter to reject
his/her ballot at the verification
station. How is the voter
enabled to cast another ballot?
Procedurally? The capture
station has no knowledge of
the rejection so it records can
no longer be used for any
official purpose. While this
may make a case for a one-toone
relationship between
records, the system is back to
a single repository for official
records and the verification
station could easily be
comprised to reject additional
ballots, corrupting the election
results. This is a case where
the records are correct but the
results are false.
