What I'm Thinking About as I Vote

A couple of thoughts as I go into voting:I have a few clients that get state funding. For a few of those grants, we get the grant and then have to provide an annual reconciliation for the funds received. The others are reimbursement grants (so we are reimbursed for the expense 30-60 days after we turn in our request reports). Reimbursement grants tend to be for the larger ones, somewhere between $50-250K.In both reimbursement requests and reconciliations, I have to provide the payment information — the date paid (not just entered into the system), the kind of payment (check, EFT, etc.) and check number, the vendor, the amount, the proof it cleared, the expense documentation, and of course what budget it came out of. In programs that split an expense, I have to demonstrate how that proportionality was decided. If something was evenly split between two programs (say a package of paper towels that was $6.21), I have to demonstrate why one program was charged $3.10 and the other one…
