Voting By Machine Begins In County
The article explains the switch to electronic voting in Kern County with new machines. Voters sign in at their polling place, receive a plastic card, and ballots appear on a screen. They select candidates, can change selections, and finish to eject a card. Results are tallied by sign-ins and machine counts, then sent to the Elections Office. Backup paper copies exist, with a five hour battery backup and an audio option for blind voters. The October 7 election is nearing amid legal questions about the 9 district ruling.
