Can PWC protect itself from an EMP event? Is there a plan, state or local? Who is responsible for recovery from outages?
The 2004 Report of the National Commission to Assess the Threat to the US from an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) attack stated that an adversary does not need
to be highly sophisticated to be able to launch an EMP attack, but an EMP attack can cause significant damage to critical infrastructure.

How did the County Board of Elections implement the Bipartisan Commission on Election Process’s recommendations?
There were many problems addressed, such as long lines and a lack of efficiency. The Prince William Committee of 100 presents an expert panel to discuss topics including the optimal point for maximizing access while preserving integrity, ID requirements, closing voter registration before an election (currently 30 days) and expansion of the criteria for absentee ballots and use of electronic means.
