Board grants final approval to Unison Voting Solutions' Open Elect 2.2.3
Summary
Staff recommended final approval for the Unison Open Elect 2.2.3 voting system after interim testing; the board approved the request and staff said they will continue special testing ahead of each election.
The State Board of Elections granted final approval to Unison Voting Solutions' Open Elect 2.2.3 system after staff reported it had met testing requirements during its interim approval period.
Bernadette described the request as a standard final-approval submission and recommended the board grant final approval. She told the board that although the company seeks final approval "staff will continue to monitor through special testing ahead of each election to ensure that there are no defects or no system anomalies occur related to an election cycle." A board member moved to accept the recommendation; the motion was seconded and passed by roll call.
The approval places the system on final-authorized status subject to ongoing monitoring and post-approval testing by the agency.
