Scytl supplies electronic poll book software to be used in Washington DC

The District of Columbia has awarded Scytl partner, Hart InterCivic, an electronic poll book contract to replace the paper precinct rosters used for checking in voters on Election Day. Scytl will license its ePollBook^TM software to Hart for use in the upcoming 2010 Primary and General elections. The ePollBook features an easy-to-use touchscreen netbook that synchronizes voter registration data in real-time and increases the efficiency of voter check-in and verification processes at the polling location. The ePollBook allows poll workers to efficiently process voters during an election, by speeding up the identification, clearly stating special situations that need to be handled, and providing help to resolve complicated issues.
