Registration Table Flowchart

If the voter is an "Incoming Precinct Transfer with an ATV", send them to the Help Table with the ATV.

For ALL OTHER VOTERS, do the following three steps in order.

STEP 1: Find the voter's label. Confirm it with the voter. Put it on an ATV.

> Ask the voter for their NAME -- start the label search. Problems? See name Hints

> Ask the voter for their ADDRESS -- finish the label search. Problems? See address Hints

> Ask the voter for their PARTY AFFILIATION (Primary elections only) Problems? See party Hints

Read aloud this data FROM the found label. Have the voter confirm this is THEIR label.
If the voter's label is found, attach it to an ATV, but NOT BEFORE getting the voter confirmation.
If the voter is Unaffiliated,
(Do this only for primary elections)
- Ask the voter for their party choice for this election.
- Repeat the choice aloud to the voter.
- Cross out any extraneous ballot styles on the ATV.

EXCEPTIONS

If voter's label is not found: Send the voter to the Help Table with no ATV.
("Voter's label not found" is the only reason to send the voter to the Help Table in this Step.)

If wrong name, wrong address, or wrong party are on the label: Mark the appropriate Section A boxes:
[ Name on label is wrong ], [ Address on label is wrong ], [ Party dispute ]. Go to Step 2.
(Note that "Party dispute"/"wrong party" are only for primary elections.)

If A, T, ID, V, P, or F on the label: Ignore for now (will be handled in Step 3). Now go to Step 2.

STEP 2: Ask the voter for a photo ID. Verify it.

? Is this a valid type of photo ID? Problems? See ID Hints

? Is the ID "unexpired"? See the Photo ID Quick Guide for photo ID details.

? Does the voter "resemble" the photo on the ID?

? Is the name on the ID "equivalent to" the name on the label?

Ignore any address on the ID. An address there does not have to match the address on the label.

EXCEPTIONS

If Photo ID check fails: Mark both the [ No ID ] and [ Photo ID ] Section A boxes. The voter must not sign the ATV. You must not initial it. Send the voter to the Help Table with the ATV.

STEP 3: Finish processing the labeled ATV. First handle any exceptions.

EXCEPTIONS

If F is on the label: Ask the voter to optionally fill out a Election Day Unvalidated DL/SSN Form.
Give the form to the Chief Judge to be put in the Blue Reconciliation Bag.

If any other exceptions are on the ATV: (See the List of Possible Remaining Exceptions on the right.)
Go to Start Processing Exceptions -- HAVA ID First. Return here if directed to do so.

Give the ATV to the voter and ask the voter to
- Verify the label information.
- Read the items below the "I certify that" line.
- Sign by the big X if all is correct.
You then initial the ATV in the Official's Initials box.
Send the voter to the Ballot Table with the ATV.

Hints

Name: Nickname? Spelling? Punctuation? Marriage or divorce?
Address: Unreported move? In wrong polling place?
Party: Missed deadline for party change?
ID: Voter can leave voting enclosure from Help Table to get an ID.
Details: See Processing ATVs and Pollbook Labels

List of Possible Remaining Exceptions

A on the label. (last-minute absentee voter, per BOE)
T on the label. ("unreported move" transfer, per voter and HTs)
ID on the label. (HAVA ID check required, per BOE)
V on the label. (address verification required, per BOE)
P on the label. (must vote provisionally, per BOE)
[ Name on label is wrong ] ATV box marked. (per voter)
[ Address on label is wrong ] ATV box marked. (per voter)
[ Party dispute ] ATV box marked. (per voter)

Start Processing Exceptions -- HAVA ID First

ID really means HAVA ID. Do the rest of this block only if ID is on the label. Otherwise go to the "Finish Handling Exceptions" block.

Ask the voter to present a valid form of HAVA ID.
Then perform the HAVA ID-required check using
the Notice to Voters with No Acceptable ID pollbook page. See ID Hints
If the check passes, mark only the ATV Section A box that specifies the type of HAVA ID the voter showed. This effectively deletes the ID exception, as if it had never been on the label.
If the check fails, mark both the [ No ID ] and [ HAVA ID ] boxes in Section A of the ATV. The ID exception will remain, requiring Help Table intervention, as indicated by these two marked boxes.
Go to the "Finish Handling Exceptions" block.

Finish Handling Exceptions

If no exceptions remain, return to Step 3 on the left. However continue below if any exceptions remain.

Mark the ATV box(es) to indicate the reason(s) for sending the voter to the Help Table. Some boxes may already have been marked, but maybe not for V, A, or T. If those exceptions exist, mark the boxes.
For a P, mark the [ Other ] box and write "P" in the field.
If the [ Address on label is wrong ] box or the [ Party dispute ] box is marked, X out any ballot style printed on the label.
DO NOT have the voter sign the ATV.
DO NOT complete the Official's Initials box.
Send the voter to the Help Table with the ATV.
