HOW TO VOTE YOUR BALLOT

As you enter the polling place, you will go over to the sign-in table.   After you have given your name and signed the signature roster, you will be issued a ballot, a marking pen and an optional secrecy sleeve.  You will then be directed to the secrecy booths.

Vote your ballot by filling in the ovals next to the candidate or issue you wish to vote.

Make sure that you use the marking pen provided and fill in the oval completely to insure a readable vote.

Once you have voted your ballot, proceed to the large black ballot box.   Insert your ballot into the ballot box.  As you start to insert the ballot, the machine will take the ballot from you.  After it scans and tallies your ballot, it will then deposit it into the locked ballot box.  If there is a problem with the ballot or a misread, the ballot will be returned to you automatically.  As it returns the ballot, a message will be displayed on the screen on top of the ballot box.   If this occurs, contact the Inspector for assistance.
