Voting Machine ChangesPasses House, back to Senate.
Here's the bill.
Quick read:
Paper trail required as of 2008 presidential.
Paper ballots available everywhere (in case of power failure, etc.)
As equipment is replaced, touch screns phased out and replaced by op scan. HAVA requirements to be met by electronic ballot marking devices.
In case of recount, the paper trail is what matters.
Jacobs amendment allows counties that have placed orders by next July to apply for waiver. Huser amendment defeated; would have voided requirements if state funding not provided. UPDATE: Correction -
Actually, no amendments were adopted by the House. The Jacobs amendment that was adopted was an amendment to amendment. The "amended amendment," H-1510, was rejected.
Thanks, comments.
FINAL UPDATE Sunday: I had a busy day and Iowa Voters has a full wrap.
