General Overview of voting market:
The electronic voting market is large. The electronic industry is in its
infancy. Just as in the initial stages of the Internet days when it was
practically impossible to quantify the Internet commerce size; currently, the
total size of the voting market is unknown. What is known is how much the HAVA
Act has budgeted so far to the states. VotePower has broken down the steps in
smaller phases to capture the essence of the underlying behemoth market starting
with the general verifiably statistics.

The Direct Recording Equipment (DRE) Market
-------------------------------------------
Two of the main hardware solutions utilized by Vote Power are the touch screen
voting hardware and the scanning hardware. The scanning hardware is standard
piece of equipment already in use by various counties at the present time which
will utilize Vote Power's specialized software for a better tabulation result.
The touch screen voting hardware (PowerVote/DRE) is Vote Power's flagship
software product and a prime difference from the competing vendors. Using
VotePower methodology/solution set, the loss of the voting client due to
malfunction or breakage does not result in any loss of the ballot. In VotePower
solution, all ballots cast through the touch screen (DRE) machine are stored in
two redundant (independent) servers and therefore the damage to the voting
device in any form does not affect the cast ballots. This process also helps in
tabulation as there is only one device per polling site to tabulate versus
tabulating of all the DREs at the polling site, which is what is offered by
other vendors.
Vote Power's DRE (touch screen machine) is just 5.2 lbs, the lightest amongst
all the vendors.
