HELP AMERICA VOTE ACT - Advisory Committee and Work Groups
|
HAVA requires every state to form an advisory committee to write a "state plan" or roadmap of how our state will comply with the Act's requirements and what improvements can be made to our election system. In order to include as many people as possible we have formed an Advisory Committee of 15 members, with "working groups" that include additional members. The working groups will study particular mandates of HAVA and make recommendations to the Advisory Committee. The first meeting of the task force was held on February 10, 2003. The objective of the first meeting was to provide an overview of the law and to identify the questions that the "state plan" must answer. The public is welcome to attend all task force and working group meetings. For more information or to join a work group contact Melanie Jacobs by email or call 802-828-2464. The following have been appointed to the 15 member Advisory Committee: Jo LaMarche, Elections Clerk, Burlington Cheryl Moomey, Town Clerk, Essex Linda Spence, Town Clerk, Manchester Annette Cappy, Town Clerk, Brattleboro Keith Goslant, Citizen, Barre (former Selectmen and JP) Duncan Hastings, Town Administrator, Johnson Joyce Sweeney, House of Representatives, Local Government Committee William Doyle, Senate, Government Operations Committee Kevin Loso, Justice of the Peace Deborah Lisi-Baker - Disabilities Rights Organization Kathy West, Representative - COVE Neale Lunderville, Office of the Governor Jim Pelkey, Franklin County Clerk, St. Albans Marge Gaskins, Executive Director, League of Women Voters Kathy DeWolfe, Director of Elections The following working groups have been assigned: Statewide Checklist John Cushing, Town Clerk Milton Deb Beckett, Town Clerk Williston Kim Pombar, Town Clerk Northfield Joyce L.
