Comment : | Comment: The draft standard requires that "voting systems that use telecommunications … shall implement an encryption standard … and provide a means to detect the presence of an intrusive process…" Recommended change: This section should be modified to place this requirement only on those telecommunications channels that transmit official election results. Rationale: Channels carrying unoffical results do not need to be burdened with the requirements for official results.
