| Concerned
Voters of Centre County is a nonpartisan group of
citizens from Centre County who are devoted to election integrity
issues. We advocate for secure & accurate elections. We are
working to assure that we have an electoral system in which all
votes are counted.
Currently, we are most concerned that as a result of decisions
made in June, 2006 by Commissioners Exarchos and Dershem, Centre
County will NOT have a voter-verified paper record of the votes
cast in November's election. Voters will be expected to trust
computers to count their votes correctly. If there is a discrepancy
there will be no way to recount the votes or truly verify the
elections results.
Since Optical Scans are the most reliable systems available to
date we advocate for Centre County Elections Board to supply Optical
Scans systems for this county. (M100 precinct based)
At the very least we demand that the paperless iVotronics
voting systems be equipped with a Voter Verified Paper Record
before November elections and that Centre County have mandatory,
random audits of at least 5% of the votes casts.
