Subject: RE: [election-services] Groups - V6 - alpha work in progress - with Q's andfeedback (EML-v6-alpha-1.zip) uploaded


In the US, a jurisdiction is required to retain records for 22 months (a federal standard) for federal elections; non-federal elections fall under state/local rules but most use the same requirement.  Some states require destruction of records following that period.  This might be an example of what was being sought but I don't know if that is truly what the submitter had in mind.

John,
 
Richard raised this - but I'm baffled.  Once you make something public - you cannot undo that!
 
I thought it might be a legal date up to which someone can request access to records - but again - I'm not sure that's something we'd have charter over.
 
We may just have to table this one.
 
Thanks, DW

Here's the extract from the originator of this item:
" I also have a need to store a date range in which it is permissible for results to be displayed. "
 
So you read into that what you will.  We may need to clarify it with the author.
Regards
John

As for the time range (item 10) I would guess that is a time past
which it is permissible (by law, regulation or procedure) to
display/report results, no? best, Joe
