Steve,
To check rotation using the L&A test on the BallotStation 4, run the test, upload the results to GEMS and print a SOVC report. Then check that the number of votes assigned to each candidate, for each race/precinct, are in ascending order starting with the 'first' candidate of the rotation for the precinct.

> Could you describe how you would use the rotation function to check rotation. What reports do you print to verify that the rotation is correct? Or is this on a precinct by precinct basis? I'm not sure how to use it yet.
