Glossary Term : | Audit Trail for DRE
Definition : |
Comment : | In the definition for the term "Audit Trail for DRE", the acronym 'DRE' is described as 'Direct Response Electronic'. The acronym 'DRE' actually stands for 'Direct Record Electronic', which identifies its ballot recording function, that is, the DRE records the ballot electronically. The acronym 'DRE' is defined further on in this standard on page A-13 (Line #4). Proposed change: Replace the words "by direct response electronic (DRE)" with the words "by direct record electronic (DRE)".
