identification of all the functions performed by the rated official but the vice chair <br />requested that it be further amended to indicate the shift worked (a.m., p.m. or all day). <br /> <br />Concerning the issue of animals in the polling places, the chair suggested adding a <br />clarification to the notice on this subject that only actual service animals be exempted <br />from the prohibition of animals in the polling places and that therapy and emotional <br />support animals are not allowed. A change was also suggested to the emergency <br />relocation instructions for Johnson Precinct. The three Board members agreed that an <br />emergency relocation to Buford rather than Tonsler would be preferable in light of the <br />fact that the former offers more space. <br /> <br />Central Absentee Precinct (CAP) Planning <br /> <br />Deputy Registrar Katie Mauller discussed preparation for the conduct of absentee <br />voting and the functioning of the CAP on election day. Among the items presented <br />were two alternative drafts of a Statement of Results form for use by the CAP. Ms <br />Mauller requested detailed review and comments on these from the Board members. <br />Additional material was presented including two alternative organizational plans for the <br />CAP team with job descriptions for each team member. Other changes in CAP <br />procedures still under consideration were discussed with the board. <br /> <br />Appointment of Electoral Board Representatives <br /> <br />There is an established requirement for the Board to appoint one or more individuals to <br />represent the Board during the conduct of routine steps in the preparation for the <br />election when no board members are available. Ms. Morton recommended that she, <br />and Assistant Registrars Anna Shingledecker and Paul Boggs, be appointed for this <br />purpose. On a motion by the chair, seconded by the vice chair, these appointments <br />were unanimously approved. <br /> <br />Logic and Accuracy Testing <br /> <br />At 12:30 p.m. the Board members joined Assistant Registrar Patrick Cory for the <br />conduct of logic and accuracy testing of the equipment to be used for in-person <br />absentee voting, which is to start on April 28. Representatives of two local TV stations <br />were on hand to observe and record the testing. The process was paused at 1:05 p.m. <br />and resumed one hour later. The testing was successfully completed with no problems <br />and the voting equipment was sealed by the Board in preparation for absentee voting. <br /> <br />Executive Session <br />
