Comment : | Standards for Data Representation The Guidelines do not define nor promote the use of any data representation standards for the electronic data generated during the election (e.g., election configuration, vote record, etc.). The use of standards facilitates the independent audit of the election without the need of using specific voting system vendor tools. The use of standards also facilitates and improves the qualification process. We encourage the TDGC to collaborate with the EML development group to determine if EML standards can fulfill the needs of U.S. elections or if any changes to those standards are necessary.
