RE: AVTS - PA Certification - Straight Party Voting



Paper ballots are completely different, since you cannot erase a mark after 
making one.  Paper ballots for Straight Party would be the same as it 
currently is in Gems.

Interesting.  Just to be clear, if they touch a race at all, does it 
forever
become "dirty"?  Consider:

(1)	Vote straight party republican.
(2)	Vote presidential democrat
(3)	Change to straight party democrat
(4)	Change to straight party reform

Even though the president race is no longer crossed over at step three, I
assume changing to reform in step 4 will have no effect on the presidential
race?  Hope voters have a notebook with them to keep track of which races
they have touched...

This makes sense as a consequence of the first part.  None of those races
are "dirty".

Question:  what is their straight party rule for paper?  I want to know if 
I
can map this stuff onto the existing GEMS straight party options, or need 
to
invent new ones for the TS only.
