Erath County, Texas Selects AccuPoll Voting System

Second Texas County to Benefit from Voter Verified Paper Audit Trail
i-Newswire.com
June 21st, 2005

i-Newswire, - TUSTIN, Calif. - AccuPoll, Inc. ( OTCBB:ACUP - News ), a developer of Direct Recording Electronic ( DRE ) voting systems, today announced that Erath County, Texas has selected the AccuPoll Voting System to meet its needs for a HAVA compliant voting system. Erath County will be the second Texas county to implement the AccuPoll voting system with a voter verified paper audit trail ( VVPAT ).

"We're pleased that Erath County has chosen to implement the AccuPoll Voting System," said Dennis Vadura, CEO of AccuPoll. "AccuPoll's voting system is certified to the 2002 Federal standards provides all of the accessibility features required by the Help America Vote Act ( HAVA )."

AccuPoll will begin delivery of Erath County's new voting system after AccuPoll receives the final paperwork confirming Texas state certification.

AccuPoll designed their electronic voting system to feature a voter verified paper audit trail ( VVPAT ), which allows voters to verify -- via an immediately printed paper audit trail -- that their vote was accurately recorded at the time it is cast. As a result, AccuPoll's VVPAT system fully empowers voters to independently ensure that their vote is correct at the time it is cast, allowing for an accurate recount and audit capability should the need arise.

  • "The core of our American democracy is the right to vote. Implicit in that right is the notion that that vote be private, that vote be secure, and that vote be counted as it was intended when it was cast by the voter. And I think what we're encountering is a pivotal moment in our democracy where all of that is being called into question." (more here)
