IN WITH THE NEW — Vickie Koelamn, Montgomery County Administrator
of Elections, holds a voting machine the county is considering buying.
The MicroVote Infinity machine fits in a small case and weighs 28 pounds.

OUT WITH THE OLD? — Koelman opens an older election machine.
The new voting machine is at her right.

1. Have you inquired about these in the election forum?

Someone there may have knowledge about these, but this doesn't look good to me. Instead of using a few machines for voters with disabilities as my county has proposed to do they are discussing replacing all of the machines in Montgomery Co. with these. Yikes!!!

2. MicroVote says that a paper trail option is available

and that the machines aren't hooked up
to any network. Most viable option
for us at this late a stage in the game
would be to push for the paper trail,
or get the item delayed until next month.
