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 How to Process Mail Returned by a Voter.
