F-3 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 9, 2010 AGENDA ITEM: Request to approve and appropriate funds in the amount of $31,220 for the purchase of electronic pollbooks SUBMITTED BY: Judith Stokes General Registrar APPROVED BY: B. Clayton Goodman III County Administrator COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: For the past two years, the State Board of Elections (SBE) has been moving towards requiring the use of electronic pollbooks (EPBs) statewide and eliminating paper pollbooks. In the governor's proposed 2010-2012 State Budget, it is the intention of the General Assembly thatall local precincts, otherthan central absentee precinctsestablishedunder § 24.2-712, Code of Virginia will use EPBs for elections held beginning in November 2010. Any locality using paper pollbooks for elections held beginning in November 2010,shall be responsible for entering voting credit as provided in § 24.2-668. Additionally, any locality using paper pollbooks for elections held after November, 2010 may be required to reimburse the State Board of Elections for State costs associated with providing paper pollbooks. The State Board of Elections indicated Roanoke County's cost for November 2008 pollbooks was $1,400. This does not include the cost of entering voting credit. If voter credit must be entered manually, it would take approximately one minute per voter. If Roanoke County had voter turnout of 50 percent, 32,500 voters would receive voting credit, taking one staff member approximately thirteen weeks to complete the task at an estimated cost of $7,500. Additional staffing would have to be brought in to perform the job of applying voter credit. With the use of EPBs, voter credit would be applied electronically by downloading data from the pollbooks and sending it to SBE for application of the credit. Page 1 of 3 The use of EPBs could eliminate the need for two to four officers of election per precinct, depending on the size of the precinct. These savings are estimated at $12,000. Last November EPBs were tested at Northside precinct where it was found that voter check-in was greatly expedited. It also eliminates the need for alphabetical divisions because a voter can check in at any EPB. The officers of election would also have access to the entire County precinct listing and would be able to refer a voter to his assigned precinct without calling the voter registration office for verification. SBE will be offering the EPBs subsidized with Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA) funds at a cost of $100 each through 2010. After this date, a locality will have to purchase the laptop, software and other accessories for an estimated cost of $1,500 each. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds are available in the minor capital fund for the purchase of the EPBs and associated accessories. The costforthe project is as follows: 80 laptops with software $ 8,000 80 printers 17,920 80 locking bags 3,300 Power strips for precincts 1,000 Extra batteries 1,000 $31,220 ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the purchase of the EPBs and appropriate $31,220 from the minor capital fund. 2. Do not approve the purchase of the EPBs and incur costs in the amount of $8,500 annually for the printing of pollbooks and staff to apply voter credit. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends appropriating $31,220 from the minor capital fund for the purchase of the EPBs. Page 2 of 3 VOTE: Supervisor Church moved to approve the staff recommendation.
