Fields and Controls on this Dialog

Election/Voter Outreach

Select one of these, depending on the type of activators you want to create:  for election voting or for a voter-outreach event.

Select Election

This button is active when Election is selected. Click to bring up a list of your county's elections. The currently selected election is shown below this button.

Baseline Export

This options is active when Election is selected. Selecting it sets a flag on the export data indicating that this data set is the starting point for an early voting or election day voting period. Web Monitor uses the baseline export to determine whether EViD stations are up to date and, when they are not, how long it will be before they have caught up. It is therefore important to select Baseline Export only when you are preparing the first export for early voting or the first export for election day voting.
