1660 comments in the VVSG 2.0 that need to be resolved. Mona Harrington saying that they will be transparent - but they have been meeting w/vendors in meetings that were not open to the public.
They're saying a lot of work ahead. What is the timeline for these to be approved?
Commish Ben Hovland asking if the epollbooks will come under the scope of the VVSG.

4. Many voters and advocates may not understand how these voter registration databases can be hacked and cause complete chaos at the polls. Good reporting suggests this happened in North Carolina in 2016 and may have caused Clinton to lose that state. nytimes.com/2017/09/01/us/…
5. Inside sources at the state BOE told me that some of the commissioners are feeling rushed and unable to do due diligence vetting epoll books

6. #VRSystems is partnering with NTS - one of the vendors that is under consideration to be approved in NY. It is not advisable to approve a VR Systems partner for use in NY State. @NYSBOE
1. Washington County #FL - reported by @washingtonpost to have had its #VoterRegistrationDatabase hacked in #Election2016 - had all of its major systems provided by #VRsystems. washingtonpost.com/world/national… @LetNYvote
2. According to maps from VR Systems website provided to me by excellent #ElectionSecurity researcher & co-founder of the Florida Fair Elections Coalition #SusanPynchon. Washington County used VR Systems for voter registration databases, website services & election mngmt systems.
3. #NY state is about to approve vendors for epoll books (electronic voter registration databases that are connected to the internet.) Because of the rush to get ready for #EarlyVoting in #NY the epoll books are scheduled to be approved today without even a public comment period
