Shelly,
In speaking with my client there are additional documents responsive to
your OPRA request. They are voluminous and cannot be sent via email. We
would propose either having your pick up the documents or sending them to
you USPS.
Please let us know how you would like to arrange to receive these
documents.
Thank you.

Dear Robin,
Thank you for the response to the request. I received an email from your legal representative that there are other records responsive to the request in addition to the 2 PDFs you provided. The PDF/image format is less useful; Is it possible to provide this information in a spreadsheet format? Excel/spreadsheet format files are also much smaller size than PDF and image files. Stuart Siewert provided the other information in spreadsheet format last month.
I will email you this request separately from my personal email address because sometimes attachments and threads become hard to manage in this OPRA request tool. Thank you for your help.
Shelly Kennedy
Dear Erik,
I have replied back to Robin Major. Below is a copy of my email to her:
Hello Robin,
This is a follow up for my response sent through the "OPRA Machine" request tool. I find it easier to send attachments, links and include contact information outside of the tool in normal email. Section A is the original request. Section B is my follow up email. Please respond back to this email address if it is more convenient for you and definitely if you are providing contact information, attachments, or links. Stuart sent the information he was responsible to provide to me in spreadsheet format via "We Transfer", a free file transfer service for large files. Thank you and happy New Year.
A. For convenience, here is the original request:
For the November 2021 General Election:
[ Stuart Siewert in IT provided a spreadsheet with the information in #1, except the four data attributes in blue, which he said your office would provide. I have asked him to check on that at this time since I have not yet received it. ]
1. Vote By Mail Activity: Please provide a list of all voters in the county who were mailed a ballot. Please provide the following data elements for each voter: Ward, Dist, Voter ID, Party, Status, Last name, First Name, Middle Name, Suffix, Street No., Street Name, APT/UNIT, Residence City, Municipality, DOB, Reg Date, Ballot Req Ballot Type, Ballot Req Voter Type, Ballot Req Trans Type, Ballot Req Rcvd Date, Ballot Received Date, Ballot Mailed Date, Ballot Counted Status, Election, Ballot Received Type, Ballot Counted Date, Ballot Reject Reasons, Voter Type Received.
[Your office to provide items #2 and #3:]
2. Provisional Vote Activity: Please provide a list of all voters in the county who submitted a provisional ballot. Please provide the following data elements for each voter: Ward, Dist, Voter ID, Party, Status, Last Name, First Name, Street No. Street Name, APT/UNIT, Residence City, Municipality, DOB, Reg Date, MWD Voted In, Election, Ballot Style, Ballot Status, Ballot Reject Reasons, Ballot Reject Other.
3. In-Person Vote Activity: Please provide a list of all voters in the county who voted in-person in the Early (10/23-31) and on the 11/2/21 in the Nov. 2021 General Election. Please provide the following data elements for each in-person vote record: Ward, Dist, Voter ID, Party, Status, DOB, Last Name, First Name, Middle Name, Suffix, Street No., Street Name, APT/UNIT, Residence City, Municipality, Reg Date, ELECTION, Ballot Style, Ballot Counted Date.
B. Here is my follow up request sent earlier today, sent via the Opramachine tool.
Thank you for the response to the request. I received an email from your legal representative that there are other records responsive to the request in addition to the 2 PDFs you provided (main.pdf (8.2 MB, Machine, Provisional); and main.pdf, (Provisional)). The PDF/image format is not very useful to me; is it possible to provide this information in a spreadsheet format? Excel/spreadsheet format files are also much smaller size than PDF and image files. Stuart Siewert provided the other information in spreadsheet format last month using a file transfer service. We Transfer.
C. Information left off Stuart's response
There were 4 data elements left off Stuart's response in December. He said that he did not have the authority to provide them. Can you either provide them or allow him to do so? Thank you. They were the ones listed above in A, copied below:
For all voters in the county who were mailed a ballot, please provide Ballot Received Type, Ballot Counted Date, Ballot Reject Reasons, Voter Type Received.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Shelly Kennedy
