November 2015
Many election
judges have already attended and successfully completed ePollbook
training, the new electronic pollbook tablets. Judges’ feedback has been
overwhelming positive as the ePollbook’s look and feel are very user
friendly, directions are clear, and the sequential prompts help
streamline the voter check-in process.
The
ePollbooks will replace the traditional pre-printed paper applications
in all 2016 early and Election Day voting sites and provide real-time
voter history updates to the Clerk’s office. In addition to aiding
compliance with new statutory requirements, this new automated resource
will help make the post-election posting of voter history more
efficient.
