Voting System Warranty 6th Year Billing to Begin Soon
We are entering into the 6th year of the statewide contracts covering voting system extended service, maintenance and warranty. The contracts cover tabulator and AutoMark break/fix, preventative maintenance (optional for AutoMarks), and ongoing technical support for all tabulators, AutoMark Voter Assist Terminals and related Election Management System (EMS) software that supports these systems.
The pricing is the same as Year 5 and the State will continue to cover 50% of all tabulator and AutoMark support costs for all counties, and for jurisdictions that are currently using or will begin using the ePollbook in 2016. Single-precinct jurisdictions with fewer than 1,000 registered voters are exempt from this EPB requirement (and are therefore eligible for the 50% State funding). These smaller jurisdictions may still implement EPB if they so choose.
ES&S bills will be going out in April; Dominion/Election Source bills are scheduled to go out in May. Invoices will reflect the same number of tabulators/AutoMarks and the same county EMS coverage option as the previous year. Upon receipt of your invoice, if you have changes to your coverage numbers or options, or if you have opted out and would like to opt-in you must notify your contractor separately.
