DescriptionHere is it how it works: Instead of filing financial reports with the Federal Election Commission by a push of a button, senators and candidates for the Senate first print their records on paper. Then they send them by post to the Senate secretary’s office. They are scanned into digital images that are e-mailed to the election commission, where they are printed and collated. The thousands of pages produced are next sent to a private contractor to be typed into a searchable electronic format for e-mailing back to the F.E.C. Then, at last, the reports are posted on the Internet.
