Memory Cards / AccuVotes
Marin - Election
Day
28
of 114 or about 1 in 4 precincts called in this AM with either memory card
issues "please re-insert", units that wouldn't take ballots - even
after recycling power, or units that needed to be recycled. We
reburned 7 memory cards, 4 of which we didn't need to, but they were far
enough away that we didn't know what we'd find when we got there (bad rover
communication).
We
have about 16 precincts reporting ballots that won't run which has turned
out to be lightly printed timing marks.
Most elections we've worked thru
issues by 9:30. Today it took until 11:30. But we are working
thru it.
The first four (4) machines brought
back by troubleshooters as "not working" in the field even after
recycling power, worked when they got here. I can't figure out what's
going on, whether its mostly the rovers or inconsistency in the
accuvotes. I've got a headache. Noon check-in from
Marin
