RE: [election-services] [FWD: Microsoft offers free repository for agency data -- Government Computer News]

David -

 

It would be interesting to know how they will control the uploads; if there is a way that they secure the incoming information with public keys so that the provider is guaranteed to be the reporting government agency this might be an opportunity for us to show how it can / should be used.  That would help with the folks that don't see how it can work in the US.

 

I actually like the prospect of its use on the results reporting side.
