posting results

["Some Guy" <someguy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well with more time today I found this in the CRS.

1-7-602. Judges to post returns.
Statute text
At any election at a polling place where voting is by paper ballot, voting
machine, or electronic or electromechanical voting system, the election
judges shall make an abstract of the count of votes, which abstract shall
contain the names of the offices, names of the candidates, ballot titles,
and submission clauses of all initiated, referred, or other ballot issues
voted upon and the number of votes counted for or against each candidate or
ballot issue. The abstract shall be posted in a conspicuous place that can
be seen from the outside of the polling place immediately upon completion of
the counting. The abstract may be removed at any time after forty-eight
hours following the election. Suitable blanks for the abstract required by
this section shall be prepared, printed, and furnished to all election
judges at the same time and in the same manner as other election supplies.

However in regards to the way in which things were done in the past in BC I
found this.

1-7-507. Electronic vote-counting - procedure.
(8) Precincts using punch card electronic voting systems shall not be
required to post the abstract of the count of votes at the precinct after
the closing of the polls.
Editor's note: This version of subsection (8) is effective until January 1,
2006.

Statute text
(8) (Deleted by amendment and repealed, L. 2004, pp. 1359, 1361, §§21, 31,
effective January 1, 2006.)

It was amended in HAVA, because by 06 punch cards will be illegal.

Thus, in Boulder County the results of the elections should now be posted in
all precincts for a period of 48 hours. Now, because the clerk's office has
finished the tally and is now working on the provisionals.

I wonder if the law will be followed.
