Eligibility Match Queue

To access:  VOTER REGISTRATION > Eligibility Match Queue

or

LIST MAINTENANCE > Eligibility Match Queue

The Eligibility Match Queue lists voters whose eligibility to vote may be in question. Voter records are added to the Eligibility Match Queue from the import of voter data using the TEAM Interface. Each entry in the queue is referred to as a match record because the data supplied by TEAM has met the criteria needed to match a voter record in Voter Focus and each match record has an assigned type.

Records can also be added to the queue based on eligibility activity in Voter Focus, such as scheduling a Notice of Examination from the Eligibility Maint tab in the voter record.

Tip: To review the procedure for processing specific match types, see Process Records in the Eligibility Match Queue.
