RE: [election-services] EML v6 CHANGES

I see two separate states: "spoilt" for truly not to be counted already determined for some official reason; "pendingreview" for those that are in a state that needs to be assessed by someone.

I think you are right, both are possible uses; conditional contests is the easy match; having non-contest items to control processing is another.

For the "spoilt" naming issue, we essentially want something that
communicates "needs human intervention", no? What about "unclear" or
"indeterminate"?

For the "Do not see any provision for control contests." issue, isn't
this just a contingent contest setup (where one contest depends on the
selection made in a previous one)? I don't understand the practical
need, if not. Maybe this is getting at choices presented on the
ballot that aren't actual votes (like a straight-party selection
choice).

best, Joe
