Houston City Council Candidates Forum - Voter Verifiable Paper Ballots
Tuesday, Oct. 25 7:30 p.m.
Rice University
The Rice University Young Democrats and The Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party invite all Houston City Council candidates to hear a brief presentation of the Election Reform Committee of the Harris County Democratic Party's position regarding the necessity for a voter verifiable paper trail with our Hart Intercivic ('e-Slate') electronic voting system.
We will then encourage questions and dialogue from city council candidates on this issue.
The City of Houston has the authority to build such items into its contracts for voting systems/services used in city elections provided by Harris County and therefore Council members can influence the direction of such a requirement.
Location: Rice University, Duncan Hall, McMurtry Auditorium located inside Entrance One at the intersection of Main and Sunset. When you the reach Founder's Court (the lawn in front of Lovett Hall that terminates the main drive), Duncan Hall is visible to the right. Visitor parking is available in the lots on either side of the Founder's Court. A credit card is required.
