Comment : | 10c. Vol. II, §1.8.2.3 permits a test lab to use a simulation device, and appropriate software, to speed up the process of testing and eliminate human error in casting test ballots. This procedure, and that described by Vol. II, §4.5 (see below), envisions using this device to cast votes more rapidly, or more regularly, or both, than they are cast during actual voting. These procedures permit cheats that are triggered by patterns seen in actual voting (but not in automated test "voting") to escape detection.
