 Theoretically the cross endorsement works 
appropriately.  I noticed in VTS, if you want 
the parties listed next to the candidate, the candidate would be listed each 
time for a party affiliation as GEMS does.  Also in VTS, if you want the 
candidate to appear only once on the ballot, no party affiliation appears next 
to the candidate.  Which seems confusing, what party would the candidate be 
affiliated with? 
The state of PA expects the candidate to be listed 
only once in the race with a dual party endorsement.  
Gems currently shows: 
John Doe (Dem) 
John Doe (Rep) 
The dual party option would show: 
John Doe (Dem/Rep) 
During straight party voting and dual party option, 
whether Dem or Rep is voted John Doe would receive a vote.  Is it 
possibly to give the endorsed candidate the same ARTSQ identifier and then 
append the party name after the candidate? 
Thanks,
