      I have no idea why this seems to be new but I just
    manually fixed a VTS database in which one of the races had
    been entered using an upper case REP party code while the
    rest were lower case.  This caused the AV to return a
    properly marked ballot as cross voted.  Is it true that up
    until now everyone has been consistent in the way they
    entered the race party codes?

      This should be fixed in future releases of both VTS and
    the AV.  VTS should convert to a single case probably
    according to how it's defined in the registration codes
    although simply forcing upper or lower case on download
    would support all current AV releases.  Future releases of
    the AV should be case insensative.
