Voter Response

To access:  VOTER REGISTRATION > Voter Maintenance > {voter} > Voter Response

This dialog lets you record a communication from a voter that the voter originated. This type of communication is known as a voter response. Recording a voter response automatically updates the voter's last-activity date. It also adds an entry on the voter's Audit and Comms tabs.

Note:  Voter responses to mailings from the elections office are not recorded on this dialog. Such communications are considered returned mail and are processed as described in Process Mail Returned by a Voter.
