Project Announcement: Termination of the Evaluation of the Security of Department of Defense Electronic Voting for the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (Project No. D2020-DEV0PA-0111.000)

We announced the subject audit on April 27, 2020, (attached). The objective was to determine whether Department of Defense electronic voting methods effectively identify, authenticate, record, and safeguard the votes of individuals covered by the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA). We are terminating this evaluation because the primary responsibility for security of the voting process is the responsibility of the States and agencies outside of the Department of Defense.

Project Announcement: Evaluation of the Armed Forces Retirement Home Response to the Coronavirus Disease–2019 Pandemic (Project No. D2020-DEV0PC-0158.000)

We plan to begin the subject evaluation in August 2020. The objective of this evaluation is to determine whether the Armed Forces Retirement Home protected the residents, staff, and medical professionals from coronavirus disease–2019 exposure in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, State, and local health and safety guidance. We may revise the objective as the evaluation proceeds, and we will consider suggestions from management for additional or revised objectives.
