Voting Is Easy
There are 2 types of voting equipment.
Optical Scan Ballot
One system uses a computerized optical scan ballot. Voters receive a paper ballot and a marking pen. Voters simply connect the 2 parts of the arrow pointing to the candidate(s) of their choice. After marking their ballot, the voter places the ballot in a counter, which scans the ballot and tabulates the votes. The counted ballot is then dropped into a locked compartment.
Touch Screens
The second type of voting equipment uses a touch screen. Voters work through the ballot by touching the different offices shown on the screen. The size of the print can be increased for easier reading. These machines are also equipped with braille controls and an audio headset for the visually impaired.
