On February 7, the Eleventh Circuit defeated an attempt by Georgia to dismiss Curling v Secretary of State of Georgia, 18-13951. In 2017, some Georgia voters had filed a federal lawsuit against the use of machines that don’t leave a paper trail. The case is still pending in U.S. District Court. The U.S. District Court Judge had made some rulings showing support for the case, but denying injunctive relief for the 2018 election because there wasn’t enough time to set up new machines.
The state then tried to persuade the Eleventh Circuit to dismiss the case, based on the Eleventh Amendment and standing, but the Eleventh Circuit kept the case alive. Here is the 16-page ruling.
How many $$$ bribes from DRE biz to State HACKS ???

ALL paper mail ballots — Oregon survives.
@DR,
You’re so cynical.
The meetings in Hawaii, Virgin Islands, etc. permit election officials to get away from the day-to-day of election administration, and concentrate on the latest models of vote-counting equipment.
Almost too many DETECTED/convicted Felons in local governments involving pay-to-play govt contracts — aka contract BRIBES.
Those meetings paid for by the bizs involved ??? — mere vacation BRIBES ???
ANY thing new in scanners since 1950s (repeat 1950s) in skoool tests ???
No laser scanners in 1950, no OCR recognition.
The 1960 census forms were coded by enumarators and then transferred to microfilm before convertin to magnetic tape.
The election administrators don’t have time to keep up with the latest technology or laws. The vendors do. They’re probably feeding info to the plaintiffs. Georgia will end up buying new equipment.
Hopefully the state legislature will use VOTER-GA’s recommendations.

ALL the New Age NO paper regimes = TOTAL CORRUPTION

Current flow through the pencil markings, operator manipulates controls to get total score. Can process 800 per hour. What are the rjght answers on a ballot?
What if a voter doesn’t mark a ballot correctly? are they recalled by the vendor. The vendor sends out a replacement unit, and the defective unit is cannibalized for parts.
