PAPER BALLOTING

Our Clear Count™ paper ballot platform brings a 21st Century surety to 'old-school' scanned ballot tabulation. This platform is a real 'game changer' for all of our clients and particularly for those who require an observable onsite count or can accommodate a 'remote' web-cast paper ballot tabulation and adjudication process.

Federally Cerified, the Clear Count™ platform tabulates and stores each scanned ballot as a high resolution image, then uses its ‘ballot inventory system’ to sort, catalog, isolate and display all voter marks. This allows for a ‘digitally interactive’ adjudication of every ballot by designated election stakeholders - it virtually eliminates the ‘Black Box’ effect of legacy scanning technology and brings fully observable transparency to the paper ballot counting and reporting process.

ONLINE VOTING

As a strategic partner, Votegrity provides our clients encrypted, Azure-hosted online balloting based on HELIOS™ – a peer-reviewed, open source and truly End-to-End Verifiable (E2EV) remote electronic voting platform.

Accessible on any computer, tablet or smartphone browser, this the Votegrity platform provides maximum voter anonymity while, at the same time, providing each voter with a ‘smart ballot tracking’ identifier, a time-stamped emailed receipt, as well as a ‘self-audit’ cryptographic protocol. In other words, a voters can really verifiy her electronic ballot has been cast and counted as intended.
