AutoMARK Assessment: As a continuation of our efforts in evaluating the performance of the AutoMARK Voter Assist Terminals, Bureau staff are in the field today visiting various polling locations.  Upon arrival at each site staff members will introduce themselves and will ask to speak with the precinct chairperson.  The precinct chairperson will then be asked some basic questions regarding the performance of the AutoMARK terminal.  In addition, a number of jurisdictions will be contacted immediately following the election and asked to provide us with the flashcards that were used for today's election.  

Please feel free to contact the Bureau of Elections if you have any questions regarding the Election Day assessment or flashcard review.  We appreciate your assistance!
