If you look at the database, they
have it almost set up right. They
just need to delete that extra Cumulative Counter Group. The have the report precincts set up
OK. With a small test that I did
here, the AVTS loaded up results with the current definition with no problem. Jeff Hintz Global Election Systems -----Original
Message----- Rowan
County, NC has set up their election with 2 Cumulative Counter Groups that both
have the same Vote Center Category.
I don’t know if this is possible or not, but after downloading their
memory cards and running ballots thru the Accu-Vote, and then run an ender card
they get the message: Absentee Count Card Expected. If this is the correct way of setting up the Cumulative
Counter Groups, is there a special Absentee Count Card needed for getting the
results into Gems??? What
you describe makes sense, but without knowing Rowan it is safe to say its not
set up the way they would want. After talking with Nancy from Rowan County, what they
would like is 3 separate Cumulative Counter Groups, 1 for Absentee, (both
Walk-In & Mail), 1 for Transfers, and 1 for Provisionals, and they would
like to be able to have separate results for each of these groups. Sounds
like they want 1 cumulative counter group "cumulative" and three
cumulative report precincts "absentee", "transfers", and
"provisionals". I have no problem changing this for them, however,
they have already programmed their disks for the AVTS units & are currently
voting on those, which are included in the Cumulative Counter Group. Woah. Are you sure these even upload? Cumulative counter groups and AVTS
don't really mix. How many ballots
have been voted? When I go and make these changes, I no longer have
valid disks for the AVTS units.
How can I fix this problem for them???? I'll
take a look. Ken |
