Hart InterCivic, Inc. announced it will supply Humboldt County, California with electronic poll books that will replace the paper precinct rosters used for checking in voters on Election Day. Humboldt County has successfully used the Hart Voting System since 2006. With the addition of Hart's ePollBook, Humboldt County will provide a seamless integration for voters at the polls making the process more efficient, secure and accurate.

The ePollBook will be deployed for use by Humboldt County in November. Key features of Hart's ePollBook offering: enables anywhere voting -- Early Voting, Vote Centers, Election Day; provides an easy-to-read screen that's intuitive for poll workers; intelligently guides poll workers through the check-in process to achieve consistent qualification of each voter; securely encrypts all voter data and communications; provides integration with the Hart Voting System to ensure correct ballot style using Access Code on Demand (optional). The ePollBook also allows a faster determination of voter counts for periodic status calls, faster upload of voter history to the master voter registration database and supports same-day registration.

Hart InterCivic, Inc. has introduced Hart Election InSite, a social media monitoring service that uses key words and geo location technology for real-time intelligence on Election Day. Designed to help election officials improve voting efficiency, Election InSite is the first and only monitoring and analysis tool to use geo location technology with open social networks to identify and pinpoint potential voting issues. This 'early warning' capability can be used at any number of voting locations and is monitored centrally, allowing election officials to respond to any developing issue with information and resources before it becomes a disruptive event. Election InSite monitors postings to open social networks for keywords that could indicate a potential problem. The service can also track the tone of public postings to help determine voters' relative satisfaction with their voting experience. Different from most social media tracking tools, however, is Election InSite's ability to identify where these postings originate, meaning election officials know exactly where to send help. Key Benefits of Election InSite: monitor on-site developments in real-time to aid early response. Immediately pinpoint where problems may be occurring to efficiently direct resources, identify high density of election related postings to aid in resource balancing, measure tone and sentiment of voters to better understand voters experiences, custom filtering, analysis and reporting capabilities to help identify and document trends.
