Push Continues in Congress for Verified E-Voting Trail

by on

Press release: Senators Clinton and Boxer, Representative Tubbs Jones And Others Unveil Major Election Reform Bill:

  • “The Count Every Vote Act of 2005 (S. 450) will provide a voter verified paper ballot for every vote cast in electronic voting machines and ensures access to voter verification for all citizens, including language minority voters, illiterate voters and voters with disabilities. The bill mandates that this ballot be the official ballot for purposes of a recount. The bill sets a uniform standard for provisional ballots so that every qualified voter will know their votes are treated equally, and requires the Federal Election Assistance Commission to issue standards that ensure uniform access to voting machines and trained election personnel in every community. The bill also improves security measures for electronic voting machines.”
