Public invited to attend logic and accuracy testing

Supervisor of Elections Kathy Dent invites the public to observe the logic and accuracy testing of the county's voting and tabulating equipment to be used in the April 10, 2007, City of Sarasota Commission District 2 run-off election.

Florida law requires the supervisor of elections to test the county's voting and tabulation machines prior to each election to ensure that they are operating and recording accurately. Voters are invited to attend the logic and accuracy test, which is open to the public.

The testing is scheduled for Thursday, March 22, 2007, at 9:00 a.m. at the office of the Supervisor of Elections in the Terrace Building at 2001 Adams Lane, Sarasota, Florida. Logic and accuracy testing is performed on a random sampling of all the voting machines that will be fielded on election day. Testing of the tabulating equipment and election reporting software is also conducted prior to every election.
