Iowa voters split over ballot scanning impact in 2000 race
Auditors from Linn Johnson and Polk counties say state rules on over votes may skew results and differ from statutes. They note lever machines limit over voting while optical scanners risk unequal treatment for mail ballots and Election Day voters. In Johnson County 0.9 percent over votes. Linn 0.3. Scott 0.32. Polk 0.55. Absentee voting and machine breakdowns raise questions about uniform counting across Iowa counties.
