On the state level Dr. Brit Williams of Kennesaw State
University, a member of the NASED Voting System Board (a sub-committee of
NASED), ensures that all equipment submitted for certification in Georgia
complies with State laws and rules. After determining eligibility, Dr. Williams
prepares a Certification Report for review by the Secretary of State's office. The
Secretary of State makes the final decision whether or not to certify certain
voting equipment. On the local level, it is verified that the equipment has passed
national and state certification tests, and complies with local contracts and
procurement documents.
B. Mr. Barnes then informed the Commission that there were eight different
vendors who had submitted information to Dr. Brit Williams for certification of
their voting equipment in the state of Georgia and that of these eight, seven were
in position to obtain full national and state certification in time to participate in
the pilot project. In fact two vendors have already completed the certification
process.
