Re: ability to clear one precinct in a multiprecinct vote center

[Guy Lancaster <glanca@dieboldes.com>]

There are times that only one precinct in a vote center is off (+ or - ) and they only need to recount one precinct and because it is in a multiple precinct vote center they have to recount all the precincts when they only want to do one -  this occurs mainly in the early voting and polling vote centers where the humans haven't followed the directions and therefore the count is off - 

If you clear the AccuVote counts and re-feed you will be clearing every precinct on that card.  Perhaps I misunderstood your first message.  Do you want to clear one precinct on the AccuVote?  Again, possible, but how would you like that to work?  Feed a precinct header card to indicate which precinct to clear or something?

  Would it be reasonable to download a new memory card designed to count just the precinct in question?  This would imply selecting a precinct for recount (as opposed to a race which is another common recount requirement), clearing its counters (probably automatic), downloading its memory card, recounting, and uploading the new count.
