Joan Dargie | Oppose HB1076

The municipalities go through many requirements in order to purchase ballot counting machines. The most recent machines purchased took 4 years from piloting machines to purchasing and putting to use after being reviewed by Ballot Law Commission and Secretary of State. In addition we now have Accessible voting machines that are required by law after a recent court ruling. Not sure that this would be legal to eliminate all ballot counting devices. Also, I am not sure how the legislative body would go to the Ballot Law Commission to ask to rescind the ballot counting devices. Would they do that before or after they put the warrant on the ballot and then would the Ballot Law commission have the final say on what happens.?
