Glossary Term : | Touch Screen Voting Machine
Definition : |
Comment : | Machine that displays ballot choices on a video screen, and that permits a voter to make her selections by touching designated locations on that screen. Explanation: The voting machine itself does not necessarily tabulate the votes. It may, in some DREs. But it does not in any EBP. The voting machine does not necessarily tabulate even in a DRE: the machine might simply record an electronic record of individual votes, which is then tabulated by some other machine or some other software.
