NewBooth 1.26 Copyright 1992-93 Keith N. Cochran
NewBooth is a door which is part of the Voter Plus Voting Door System.
It is meant to be run as a login type door, and when run, will notify
the caller if a new voting booth has been created and optionally whether
any booths have been modified since their last call date/time.
