11. HAVA Sect. 301 says the paper must be counted!
As a sidebar, although HAVA does NOT require a VVPAT, it does require the paper that is produced by the system to be "available as an official record for any recount conducted with respect to any election in which the system is used."

I would interpret this to mean that if a system DOES produce a VVPAT, as yours must, the VVPAT is to be recounted as the official record.

If your bill does not become law, try to go with HAVA! It's not all bad.
