Once the Voter cast the ballot - we may have situations that the voter changes his/her mind and wants to cancel the vote (cast ballot).

Another example - once we have paper ballots - user might make a mistake on the ballot and he/she may request a new ballot (with a new "Voter ID").
First - we need to Spoil the Ballot (spoil exiting Voter ID printed on the ballot) and re-assign a new "Voter ID" to a new paper ballot.

We need "Spoiling Ballot Reason Codes" (is it Admin maintainable dictionary or standard dictionary?) - eg:

  • voter is no longer eligible for voting
  • voter made a mistake on the ballot - important with paper ballots
  • voter changed her mind and wants to cast another ballot

Open Questions:

  • Where to add the "Spoil the Ballot" functionality? Admin function - view ballots - add function "Spoil the ballot".

We do not have yet Election Audit report - changes to the ballot should be included in the "Spoiled Ballots Report" with:

  • Why: Reason Code
  • When: Date of change (spoiling the ballot),
  • Who: Admin Email who Spoiled the ballot.

How to represent "Spoiled Ballots" in the Download functionality - reports:

In case we implement #728 - how do we represent info re Ballots that were "edited" / changed by user after casting a ballot.
Is it the same section in the Audit Report?

  • same section - e.g. Spoiled Ballots and Edited Ballots
    or
  • two different reports / sections in a report.
