Automating things in software development is more than useful and using Ansible is one way to automate software provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment. Normally you would install Ansible to your control node just like any other application but an alternate strategy is to deploy Ansible inside a standalone Docker image. But why would you do that? This approach has benefits to i.a. operational processes.

Although Ansible does not require installation of any agents within managed nodes, the environment where Ansible is installed is not so simple to setup. In control node it requires specific Python libraries and their system dependencies. So instead of using package manager to install Ansible and it’s dependencies we just pull a Docker image.

By creating an Ansible Docker image you get the Ansible version you want and isolate all of the required dependencies from the host machine which potentially might break things in other area

So you want to report using voterfiles

History

In 2002, the Help America Vote Act required (among other things) that states must maintain a "computerized statewide voter registration list". These lists (henceforth "voterfiles") contain information about every registered voter and their voting history.

But what about the secret ballot?

When people who have not worked with voterfile data before hear about voterfiles, their first response is almost always "But in my 8th grade civics class, I learned that a critical component of American democracy is the secret ballot! How can states have a list of how you vote?" Voterfiles do NOT include information about how an individual voted. They report whether an individual voted in a specific election.

What information do voterfiles contain?

The exact format and contents of a publicly available voterfile differ from state to state. At a minimum, a file will contain:
