> Steve, In the rcr if the YES and NO selections will both activate the recalled race then they should both be designated as candidate type "RecalledKeyCandidate" .This is in keeping with the existing logic. jwh -----Original Message----- From: owner-support@dieboldes.com [mailto:owner-support@dieboldes.com]On Behalf Of Steve Knecht Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 1:36 PM To: support@dieboldes.com Subject: RE: 2488 Automatically vote recall race if recalled race is voted. Enable recalled race always. I believe the description of the existing functionality sounds like a CA. logic, which is a requirement. That is a YES or NO vote can activiate the recall, and if the YES votes are over 50%, then everyone's vote (whether they voted YES OR NO above) is counted for the recall. I do not believe Jeff's request would meet the CA. requirements.

Enable recalled race always. Can I have a show of hands of AVTS states/accounts that allow recall races? Jeff is proposing a new behavior that might or might not be desirable for everyone. We can make it a YAF (Yet Another Flag), but if everyone is happy with Jeff’s proposal, we’ll just make it the behavior for all. This is RCR#2488. Ken
