SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: In accordance with the Government in the Sunshine Act
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94-409, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will conduct a public meeting to
discuss the 2023 EAC Voluntary Electronic Poll Book Pilot Program and
consider next steps for the program.
Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will consider
the adoption of the Voluntary Electronic Poll Book Pilot Program as a
standing program at the agency. To facilitate this conversation, the
EAC Commissioners will hear from the EAC's Election Supporting
Technology Evaluation Program (ESTEP) staff on feedback they have
received on the pilot and recommendations for next steps for
implementation.
Background: Under the authority of the Help America Vote Act
(HAVA), the EAC created the Election Supporting Technology Evaluation
Program (ESTEP) to establish requirements and guidelines specific to
election technologies that are not covered under the Voluntary Voting
System Guidelines (VVSG). The e-poll book pilot is the first in a
series of pilots conducted by the ESTEP program, which will also
examine voter registration databases, election night reporting systems,
and electronic ballot delivery systems.
The e-poll book pilot program testing took place between January
and August 2023. The pilot involved two VSTLs, Pro V&V and SLI
Compliance, that tested e-poll book devices from five commercial
manufacturers, and two in-house developers. These systems were tested
against the Voluntary Electronic Poll Book Requirements (Version 0.9)
developed by ESTEP in consultation with the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), cybersecurity and accessibility
experts, and other key stakeholders.
The full agenda will be posted in advance on the EAC website:

Status: This meeting will be open to the public.
Camden Kelliher,
Deputy General Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
