<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I early voted in Las Vegas on the machine which
is called "The edge machine" and I poll watched for 12 hours on Nov 2 where
two such machines were used.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I neither saw nor heard of any problems. The
only minor factor was that at the end of voting in the shutdown process, the
paper totals record scrolls into the storage case of the Edge Machine leaving
only the bottom 12 inches of ballot qustions displayed so you cannot get an
immediate total of votes per candidate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The "Full Face" touch screen machines provide
a removable paper totals sheet along with the electronic
cartridge.</FONT></DIV>
