The Lee County Ledger, Thursday, August 9,2001 - Pagi
The Future Of Georgia's
By Secretary of State Cathy
Cox
What if there was a 3.5 per-cent
chance that the bank would not
have your money when you went
to make a withdrawal? Or if ev
ery time you turned on your of
fice computer there was a 3.5 per
cent chance all your saved infor
mation had been lost? With those
kinds of error rates you would lose
confidence in these systems. And
you'd probably be stashing your
money in the mattress and typing
letters and business records with
carbon copies in the file cabinet.
The presidential undervote rate
in Georgia's 2000 General Elec
tion was 3.5 percent. That means
about 94,000 people who stood in
long lines at the polls had no vote
recorded in the most important
race on the ballot. Georgia's
undervote percentage far exceeds
that for the nation as a whole, and
even that of Florida, which re
ceived unprecedented scrutiny
during the 2000 election.
We can assume that some small
number of those 94,000 Geor
gians chose not to vote in the
presidential race. But for thou
sands of others, their vote was lost
due to an inadvertent error or be
cause of failures in the voting or
counting equipment.
How can we encourage more
citizens to participate in elections
when there is such an unac
ceptably high possibility that their
vote will be lost?
Earlier this year the General
Assembly recognized the magni
tude of this problem and moved
aggressively to make Georgia the
first state in the nation to pass
comprehensive election reform
legislation. Our new law man
dates the implemen-tation of a
uniform voting system by 2004,
provided that funds are made
available for this purpose. It also
creates an 18-member, bipartisan
commission to help study equip
ment alternatives and to oversee
a pilot program with ATM-style
voting machines (not connected to
the Internet, but used at a precinct)
in municipal elections this fall.
At the 21st Century Vote
Commission's first meeting in
Macon, 13 cities were chosen as
test sites for the electronic voting
equipment. The pilot cities se
lected were Buena Vista, Canton,
Dawson, Decatur, Hogansville,
LaGrange, Lithonia, Reidsville,
Rome, Statesboro, Suwanee, West
Point and Thomasville.
At its second meeting the Com
mission selected and matched
equipment vendors with each of
the participating cities. Commis
sion members were also given a
hands-on demonstration of the
features of each of the seven dif
ferent equipment types.
Each system is a little different
from its peers, but they all offer
similar benefits: they let voters
avoid mistakes by preventing
them from accidentally casting a
duplicate vote (called an
overvote). The equipment also
allows users to review selections
and make any necessary cor
rections before casting their final
ballot. Other desirable features
accommodate citizens with spe
cial needs, including ballots in
several languages and enlarged
print and headphones to actually
talk you through the ballot for the
visually impaired.
The Commission has recom
mended testing seven types of
equipment for use in the pilot pro
gram, if they pass national and
state certification tests. Georgia's
certification process evaluates the
machine's functionality, durabil
ity and security features.
As voters head to the polls on
November 6th, many will have
questions and concerns about
these new machines. Change can

be intimidating and we hope to
avoid any confusion by providing
many opportunities for voters to
become acquainted with the sys
tems before actually casting their
ballots. But, you can be certain
that a voter need not have ever
used an office or home computer
to be able to vote on these ma
chines.
Prior to the municipal elections,
citizens will have the opportunity
to cast mock ballots on the equip
ment. On Election Day, trained
poll workers will assist voters
who need to practice with a dem
onstration machine before enter
ing the voting booth.
After the election, Commission
members will evaluate the per
formance of all the equipment and
review data on citizen experiences
and preferences. The information
collected will assist the Commis
sion and our office in setting a
course to reach our goal of a uni
form voting system in all 159
counties by the 2004 General Pri
mary Election.
We can be proud that Georgia
is leading the nation in the move
to adopt election systems that are
accurate, convenient and user-
friendly. And it's worth noting
that here, Democrats and Repub
licans are unified in working to
gether to achieve this important
goal. There is much more to be
done in the months ahead, but
Georgia is off to a great start.
