For those in California who want to construct a Package of Objective Documents to present to their County Supervisors and Election Clerks
to "Educate" them, these are a beginning.
I seriously doubt that many elected officials, especially the supervisors, have or will ever read any of this material.
The problem at hand, at the moment, is to make sure that they purchase the most secure equipment which is compliant with the 2006 mandated regs. If they purchase non-compliant equipment, they will try to back door, grandfather it in and try to suspend the 2006 mandated regs, especially now that Shelley is gone. In doing so, they will claim that they have already spent the HAVA Fed Money, and the cash strapped local counties will not have enough money to purchase compliant equipment.
The first document on the list is really good, it covers a lot of what we discuss here at DU.
