NAACP Uses Hart InterCivic’s Verity Voting System to Elect New Officer Positions
AUSTIN, TX (PRWEB) January 12, 2015 -- The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) gave its members the opportunity to cast their vote for new officer positions using the latest in voting technology.
The organization used Hart InterCivic’s new Verity Voting System during the group’s meeting in Philadelphia in early December. On the ballot were candidates for 2015 officer positions as well as the Executive Committee.
“When electing new members to office, transparency is key,” said Minister Rodney Muhammad, incoming President of Philadelphia’s NAACP chapter. “The Verity Voting System was a complete success from ease of use to quick results and overall security.”
“Verity provides a turnkey voting solution and a unique user-friendly approach,” said John Jordan, Chair of the Elections Committee. “It’s exciting we were able to give Philadelphia voters and elected officials in our community an opportunity to see what the future could be with Verity.”
“Verity is the only voting system that uses advanced technology to benefit both voters and election officials,” said Karen Clakeley, Hart InterCivic Director of Strategic Accounts, who was in Philadelphia and part of the team supporting Hart’s Verity equipment at the NAACP officer election. “We were honored to assist with the election.”
