If
they do not have an election for 2 years, why the rush to update them at this
time. I am willing to bet we will
have a later release of AVTS software before 2003.

Their
next scheduled election will take place November 10, 2003. The election
summary was of particular interest to the City Clerk of Barrie, John
Craig, the man responsible for its purchase. In the last election, there
were a number of voters who kept touching the NEXT without voting. It is
his opinion that showing a summary of the candidates voted for would eliminate
the blank vote.
Barrie
is the only municipality in Canada using a touch screen system and as such,
John Craig is asked to speak at many election functions as well as media
interviews.

When
is their next election? What
benefits does 4.0 provide them that they do not currently have. What features does 4.0 give them that
they need for their next election?

Subject: AVTS
software upgrade - From 3.12 to 4.0.4
The City of Barrie,
Ontario has seen our latest AVTS 4.0 software, and was wondering if they would
be able to upgrade their Blue & White AVTS units to that
version.
They are running
Windows 98 on their current AVTS units. So that is not a
problem.
However, they are
using Poll Book version 3.12, which is on their own Computer Systems with a
external card reader connected, and creating voter cards this
way. Is Poll Book version 3.12 compatible with Ballot Station
4.0.4. I think that this would be the only concern in doing an upgrade
for them.
