[NFBofAlaska] FW: Demo for using the computer to vote in Alaska

Fri Oct 16 15:50:13 UTC 2020

Hi Brian,

Yes, it doesn’t say anything but personally I noticed that when I download anything it doesn’t say when it’s done. It may be the default with either JAWS or Microsoft but I do remember the days when it always said. Could also be the size of the download that determines whether you get information about it. I do know that it happens fast. Anyway, you could ask for an online ballot to be delivered to your email where you would receive the access code. Actually, that would be cool because then you would have done it both ways. I am going to call them today and mention my thoughts about the envelope. You’ll here from me later today, but, would you be available Sunday afternoon to talk about the technical logistics with Michael for the convention? I’m inviting Nate and Tony Gebhard, who lived here for a short while and hopes to move back within the next year. He is doing some computer training for the Center. A couple other also, like Candy will be invited. 

Thanks for your support!

You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

Hi,

I did it and I found it extremely easy to do. It was much easier than using the voting machine at the polling place. The only problem I found is that when I hit the download button to download my ballot I didn't get any notification that the download had happened. So I did it four times. Then I checked the downloads folder in Firefox and found I had four completed ballots! So would be nice if the page would notify that the download was successful, and or give an option of where to save the download.

Friends,

Here is a link to a sample online ballot that you may fill out and print. When you open the ballot link, you will want to use the RAVBM  voter and the password or access code for that is: 10681067253.

Here is the link to the page:

I encourage as many as possible to try it out as we would like to make sure that the division of Elections knows that we have tried it and that it works. The next step will be to help them understand that having an addressed envelope sent to each person will be as important as having the accessible ballot. 

I did it and it was very easy to do. If you have questions, let me know.

I’m forwarding the link for the demo that you ask for. Jerry really came through getting this done so fast. 

Hopefully this will help voters so they feel more comfortable voting their ballot.

Hi Donnetta,

It’s our pleasure, however I owe you an apology.  The team prepped this yesterday, but I got sucked into other activities and never mailed you the information.  Here it is…

Website: https://loadtest.intvoting.com/510a_training3/Default.aspx

Access Code for a UOCAVA Voter: 16967206139

Access Code for a RAVBM voter: 10681067253

Thank you,

Hi Jerry,

Once again you’re my hero, getting demo set up for the NFB is great. I didn’t think it could be done. Once I received it I’ll forward it on, or do you want to send it to Lou Ann?  Again thank you.
