I also thought of somethng that should more or less be "automatic" for these businesses to do -- have an accurate count of the outgoing and very thorough check up of the ones returned before reporting so an accurate figure is known. IF there are some missing ballots, those people SHOULD be contacted in some way shape or form to get a reason for them not to have been returned as specified. Then, timing would be a little better with automatic checking as part of the assignment a set date before the deadline in case there's some kind of glitch other than the one we have at this time that is surely different!! Just a suggestion as well to help things get proper attention.

This leads to me to wonder what procedure our club follows when printing jobs are contracted out. I know with our municipality, our procedure requires any print jobs we have done (right down to business cards) to first have a proof submitted which REQUIRES APPROVAL PRIOR to printing the job. Do we as a club have such a procedure in place?
