This is a long standing discussion. That is why we came to the
conclusion that EITHER we need to use the AccuVote with self sticking labels
(ala AccuVote with same card/printer) or we need to develop a device for
same. We have been asking for a "card burner" with printer capability for
mass burning, but have always been told that "we don't want to develop
one". Now the reality of the situation is upon us and in say Alameda's
case, our solution is to use $30,000 of AccuVotes, with an ethernet connection
that is almost impossible to access easily with the dual eject button and two
slots right next to each other. It is a knuckle cruncher as is, much less
doing hundreds in a row on it that way. Again, we don't have a solution
for some of the basic functions that we need.
