                  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

                  The accounting policies as set forth in Global Election
Systems Inc.'s Form 10-KSB, filed on September 28, 1999 have been adhered to in
preparing the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements. These
statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, that the Company considers necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim period. Results for an interim
period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

                  a) Foreign Currency Transactions

                  The accounts of the Company are prepared in U.S. funds and
the Company's Canadian operations are translated into U.S. dollars as follows:

                  Monetary assets and liabilities at quarter-end rates
                  All other assets and liabilities at historical rates
                  Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange
                  prevailing during the quarter.

                  Exchange gains and losses arising from these transactions are
reflected in income or expense in the period.

                  b) Inventory

                  Inventory of finished goods and work-in-progress is valued at
the lower of cost and net realizable value as estimated by management. Raw
materials, which consist of parts and components, are valued at average cost
less any allowances for obsolescence. Inventory of goods taken in trade is
valued at the lesser of trade-in value and net realizable value as estimated by
management.

         Item 2:           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

                  The discussion and analysis of the operating results and the
financial position of the Company should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Interim Financial Statements and the notes to them. See "Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements". The financial statements have been prepared
in United States dollars in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Certain of the
information discussed in this report contains forward-looking statements
regarding future events or the future financial performance of the Company, and
is subject to a number of risks and other factors which could cause the actual
results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statements. Among those factors are: general business and economic conditions:
customer acceptance and demand for the company's products; the Company's overall
ability to design, test and introduce new products on a timely basis; the nature
of the markets addressed by the Company's products; the interaction with
governmental entities in the United States and world-wide which purchase the
Company's products; the unknown and unforeseen effects of potential "Year 2000"
problems encountered by the Company, its suppliers, customers and others; and
other risk factors listed from time to time in documents filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1998.

         SALES AND OPERATING INCOME.

                  Sales and other income increased 46.1 %, or $1,974,000, to
$6,256,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $4,281,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 1998. The increase in sales is due to new
account sales and the continued expansion of the customer base.

         COST OF SALES AND OPERATING EXPENSES.

                  Cost of sales and operating expenses increased 83.1 %, or
$1,524,000, to $3,359,000 in the 1999 period from $1,835,000 in the 1998 period.
In the 1999 period, cost of sales and operating expense as a percentage of gross
revenues increased to 53.9% from 42.9% in the 1998 period due to lower gross
margin on the voter registration product.

         SELLING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL EXPENSES.

                  In the three months ended September 30, 1999 selling,
administrative and general expenses increased 10.4 %, or $159,000, to
$1,681,000, from $1,522,000 in the 1998 period. The increase is attributable to
increased sales effort which resulted in increased sales; however, expenses were
below plan.

         RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES.

                  Research and development expenses decreased 62.4%, or
$234,000, to $141,000 in the 1999 period from $375,000. In the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 extensive development was being performed on the Accu Touch
software; this was not occurring in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The
decrease in research and development expense in the 2000 period was within the
Company's operating plan.

         INTEREST.

                  Interest expense increased 308.3%, or $111,000, to $147,000,
in the 1999 period from $36,000 in the 1998 period. The increase was within the
Company's operating plan and resulted from interest on U.S. bank loans.

         AMORTIZATION.

                  Amortization decreased 14.3%, or $18,000, to $108,000 in the
1999 period, from $126,000 in the 1998 period. The decrease was anticipated as
Lynro Manufacturing goodwill is now fully written off.

         REVALUATION OF TRADE-IN EQUIPMENT.

                  The trade-in inventory write off amounted to $131,000 in the
1999 period, which is equal to the same amount that was written off in the 1998
period. The trade-in inventory write down will continue for the next three
consecutive quarters.

         EARNINGS PER SHARE.

                  Earnings for the first quarter ended September 30, 1999 were
$668,000 or $0.04 per share compared to $256,000, or $0.01 per share for the
same period in the previous year.
 .
                  Income for the first quarter ended September 30, 1999 was
$928,000 or $0.05 per share before revaluation of trade-in equipment amounting
to $131,000, amortization amounting to $108,000 and provision for income taxes
of $20,000. This compares to income of $513,000 or $0.03 per share before
revaluation of trade-in equipment amounting to $131,000, and amortization
amounting to $126,000 for the same period in the previous year.

                  The increase in earnings per share for the 1999 period as
compared to the 1998 period was attributable to increases in revenue from sales
of products, offset by increases in cost of sales and operating expenses,
selling, administrative and general expense, and interest expense and enhanced
by decreases in research and development and amortization.

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

                  The Company uses a combination of internally generated funds
and bank borrowings to finance its working capital requirements, capital
expenses and operations. During the period ended September 30, 1999, the Company
generated most of its funding through cash flow.

                  At September 30, 1999 the Company's cash totaled $1,302,874 an
increase of $681,654 from June 30, 1999. Accounts and contracts receivable
increased to $15,380,000 at September 30, 1999 from $14,623,000 at June 30,
1999. Due to the nature of the Company's business, timing of payments on large
contracts may vary significantly, causing significant variances from period to
period in the mix of cash, other liquid funds, accounts receivable and contracts
receivable. Inventory figures may vary significantly, depending upon delivery
dates for voting systems. At September 30, 1999, inventory amounted to
$5,041,000, an increase of $434,000 from June 30, 1999. The increase in
inventory is within the Company's operating plan.

                  The Company has contractual arrangements with customers
whereby credit terms may be extended for the amounts due for voting systems. At
September 30, 1999, agreements receivable less current portion amounted to
$64,000, a decrease of $142,000 from June 30, 1999. These loans are repaid at
varying terms and with varying interest rates determined on a case by case
basis. Historically, the Company has not experienced any default in connection
with loans due from customers.

                  The Company currently has five loans outstanding, four with
Western Bank, Albuquerque, New Mexico and one loan with Hibernia National Bank
of Texas, McKinney, Texas. One loan in the amount of $1,508,500 is secured by a
specific Global USA contract in the amount of $2,155,312. This loan bears
interest at Western Bank of Albuquerque Prime Rate plus 1 % and is due January
31, 2000. A second loan in the amount of $708,174 is secured by a specific
Global USA contract in the amount of $942,789. This loan bears interest at
Western Bank of Albuquerque Prime Rate plus 1 % and is due May 27, 2000. A third
loan in the amount of $250,113 is secured by an agreement receivable amounting
to $267,364. This loan bears interest at Western Bank of Albuquerque Prime Rate
plus 1 % and is due November 15, 2000. A fourth loan, a new loan, in the amount
of $564,456 is secured by specific Global USA contracts in the amount of
$1,050,583. This loan bears interest at Western Bank of Albuquerque Prime Rate
plus 1% and is due January 19, 2001. The loan with Hibernia National Bank of
Texas in the amount of $3,600,000 is secured by a blanket assignment of accounts
receivable, and bears interest at The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate and is due
January 12, 2000. The $300,000 loan with Mr. Van Pelt was repaid in full by the
Company in August, 1999. The loans are used for working capital.

                  During the Company's current and two most recently ended
fiscal years, the Company has not experienced any material impact from inflation
or changing prices on its net sales and revenues or on income from continuing
operations.

                  Management believes that financial resources, including
internally generated funds and available bank line of credit and borrowings will
be sufficient to finance the Company's current operations and capital
expenditures, excluding acquisitions, for the next twelve months.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

DESCRIPTION OF THE ISSUE

                  The Y2K issue refers to the ability of certain date -
sensitive computer chips, software, and systems to recognize a two - digit data
field as belonging to the 21st century. Mistaking "00" for 1900 or any other
incorrect year could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions to operations, including manufacturing, a temporary inability to
process transactions, send invoices, or engage in other normal business
activities. This is a significant issue for most, if not all, companies, with
far reaching implications, some of which cannot be anticipated or predicted with
any degree of certainty. The Y2K issue may create unforeseen risks to the
Company from its internal computer systems as well as from computer systems of
third parties with which it deals. Failures of the Company or third parties'
computer systems could have a material adverse impact on the Company's ability
to conduct its business.

YEAR 2000 ASSESSMENT

                  Management of the Company has been assessing the magnitude of
the Y2K issue with respect to the Company's products, business, suppliers and
customers. In conjunction with the Company's assessment of Y2K issues which
might affect it, the Company formulated plans to address the Y2K issue,
including contingencies to address unforeseen problems.

INTERNAL BUSINESS

                  Management has reviewed all internal business computer systems
to ensure that these systems will be Y2K ready. As best the Company can
determine all systems are Y2K ready.

SUPPLIERS

                  The major suppliers to the Company are component parts
distributors. Often the Company sources its products and manufacturing services
from multiple, competing vendors. The Company has contacted all vendors and has
made a list of whether each vendor is Y2K compliant, and, if not, alternate
sources of product have been located. The only sole source supplier's product is
not date sensitive, and the Company has made plans to have a sufficient
inventory to cover any delays that the supplier might have in delivering
product. There can be no assurance that the systems of other companies on which
the Company relies will be Y2K ready on a timely basis and will not have an
adverse effect on the operations of the Company.

PRODUCTS

                  The Company completed an assessment of the magnitude of the
Y2K issue with respect to the Company's products. The Company's AccuVote - OS
and AcuVote - TS systems are designed to be Year 2000 compliant, which is
generally a requirement in requests for proposals for voting systems, and the
Company does not expect any material problems or difficulties to arise out of
its systems.

COSTS

                  The Company does not expect the cost of its Y2K assessment,
including both incremental spending and reallocated resources, to be material.
The current assessment does not include potential costs related to any customer
or other claims or the cost of internal software and hardware being replaced in
the normal course of business. This assessment is subject to change because
there is no uniform definition of "readiness for Y2K". All customer situations
cannot be anticipated, particularly those involving third party products;
therefore, the Company may see claims as a result of the Y2K transition. These
claims, if successful, could have a material adverse impact on future results.

CUSTOMERS

                  The Company has communicated with its customers to determine
the extent of the Company's vulnerability to the failure of third parties to
premeditate their own Y2K issues. All of the Company's customers are
governmental entities, and, as such, all customers have certified that they are
Y2K compliant. The Company cannot predict the effect of a lack of Y2K compliance
by its customers on the Company. The inability of a governmental unit to
generate data needed in order to conduct elections or to interface with the
Company's voting systems, or other problems, could prevent the customer from
using the Company's systems or could result in disruption of the election
process. The Company is unable to predict the impact this could have on its
business and revenues or the extent of any liability to third parties the
Company might incur, although the impact or liability could be materially
adverse to the Company and its business.

COST ESTIMATES

                  The Company has not been required to incur costs for Y2K
remedial work and has not set aside any contingency fund to deal with any
contingencies, which may arise. The costs for Y2K compliance are based upon
management's best estimates, which were derived from numerous assumptions about
future events, including third-party modification plans and other factors.
However, the Company cannot guarantee that those estimates will be accurate and
actual results could differ materially from those plans. Specific factors that
might cause material differences include, but are not limited to, the
availability and cost of personnel trained in this area and the ability to
identify and correct all relevant computer codes.
