FOEMAN, City Clerk of the City of Miami, Florida, do hereby certify that all necessary legal steps were taken in connection with the conduct of a City of Miami Special Election held on September 4, 1997, including, though not limited to, the following Logic and Accuracy Tests: On Wednesday, September 3, 1997, commencing at approximately 1 p.m., the Metro - Dade County Supervisor of Elections had the tabulating equipment located in the Elections Department, at the Stephen P. Clark Center, tested to ascertain that the equipment would correctly tabulate the precinct and absentee ballot votes cast for all City of Miami questions. Test results were compared with the predetermined totals for each question, and pursuant to requirements established in Section 101.5612, Florida Statutes, I witnessed and observed the performance and results of all required tests and verified the correctness of the program, precinct header cards and test ballots, as well as any replacement of said materials required by and subject to said tests. On this date, the City of Miami Canvassing Board (hereinafter referred to as "Canvassing Board") set the time for opening of the valid absentee ballots. The Canvassing Board also began the canvass of the presumed invalid absentee ballots cast. On Thursday, September 4, 1997 (election day) commencing at 6 p.m. the Canvassing Board resumed the absentee ballot canvass. At approximately 6 p.m., the Metro -Dade County Supervisor of Elections had the tabulating equipment located in the Elections Department at the Stephen P. Clark Center tested to ascertain that the equipment had not been tampered with, and that it would correctly count the precinct and absentee ballot votes cast for all City of Miami questions. Sealed boxes were appropriately identified by Metro -Dade County Elections Department to secure the testing materials and the program microdisks, which would ensure the inviolability of the materials in question. After the voting precincts were closed and the ballots were in, all precinct ballots cast were counted. No ballot card was removed from or added to any ballot card container, ballot card tray or other segregation of ballots, and no ballot card was in any manner altered or tampered with by any person, and no person touched any ballot cards container, ballot card tray or ballot cards except the person authorized to do so pursuant to Section 101.5614, Florida Statutes. At the completion of the precinct and absentee ballot count, the automatic tabulating equipment was again tested to ascertain that the equipment correctly counted the precinct and absentee votes cast for. all City of Miami questions. 97- 601 • E At the completion of this post -count Logic and Accuracy test, all voted ballots together with their precinct header cards, the duplicated and the spoiled ballots were appropriately stored in containers which were sealed and signed off by the Dade County Supervisor of Elections and the City Clerk, under specific sealed numbers, as more fully identified in the Logic and Accuracy Test Certificate received from the Metro -Dade County Elections Department. I further certify that all documents concerning these Logic and Accuracy Tests showed the tabulating equipment to be functioning correctly and that said documents are presently in the possession of the Supervisor of Elections of Metro -Dade County, in containers which were sealed and signed off by the Supervisor of Elections and the City Clerk.
