what they want to do is issue the
same seq # for a prov ballot say #3 and then bring them all back to the
courthouse and count them on a mem card that is a cumulative vote center -
Prov and as far as I am informed is set to count only seq 1 ballots -
can they count all 3 of the seq on a provisional card that is a cum vote
center -if they check pct ids' and seq id's on the counter group
tab?

It
doesn’t ignore sequence numbers – that would rather defeat their
purpose. What we call “smart
combined absentee sequence numbers” was introduced in 1.94r, I guess. The only reference I could find to
it is here. Central Count implements this as
well. If you have a combined
absentee counter group and vote center with more than one report precinct,
then the AVOS will try to figure out the report precinct based on the card
id, rather than on the precinct number or sequence number. Documentation folks, I don’t think
that this feature is really documented anywhere. (n.b. – the “auto absentee”
feature is something different).
Tari, whether
this will be of any help to them depends on how they want to report their
provisional ballots. If they
are counting them into a combined counter group, this is probably what you
want.

was able to do this by use of an S chip in the AV firmware. It is my
understanding that the use of this chip will ignore seq numbers. It is
used in the absentee and mail in only not at the precinct
level.

I have a client who wants to
issue provisional at the polls. She has seq id's up to seq 3 and
then wants to count them all on a provisional card - (which counts
seq 1 ballots only unless I am mistaken -
so how do we count seq 3 ballots
in a provisional vote center and report them separately - or is it not
possible?
