FOIA Request to Huntingdon County Election Department Regarding Pre-Election Voting Machine Test Reports on October 30, 2024. The Altoona Times, a media organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, has submitted a request for records under the Pennsylvania Right to Know Law.
The requested records pertain specifically to the pre-election testing of voting machines used in recent elections. The request asks for these reports in PDF format and seeks information about the test date, machine manufacturer, machine model number, and whether each machine passed or failed its test.
As a media organization committed to transparency and holding public institutions accountable, we at the Altoona Times believe that access to such public records is essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. In light of our role in disseminating information to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver as a media professional.
We eagerly await the response from the Huntingdon County Election Department and will continue to keep our readers informed about this and other matters of public interest.
