Section 6212.1 - Definitions

The terms used in this Part shall have the significance herein defined unless another meaning is clearly apparent in language or content.

(a) Computer registration file means a data base of voter registration information stored and maintained on computer which includes, inter alia, a computerized image of the voter's signature.

(b) Ledger means the binder, or notebook, in which registration poll records for an election district are stored.

(c) Registration poll list means a printed list of voters in alphabetical order for a single election district generated from a computer registration file for each election and containing, for each voter listed, a facsimile of the signature of the voter. Such a list may be in a single volume or in more than one volume. In any election district in which there are two voting machines, there must be two volumes (A-L; M-Z). The list is utilized, in place of registration poll records, to establish a person's eligibility to vote in the polling place on election day.

(d) Registration poll record means an original voter registration application, or card, or the document which replaces it because its election day sign-in section is filled to capacity, utilized to establish a person's eligibility to vote in the polling place on election day. Often referred to as "buff card".

(e) Source document means an original record from which a computer-stored image is created, or from which data is entered into a computer data base.
