Step Three: Insert your ballot into the Digital Image Scanner
Insert your ballot into the scanner. Directions on how to properly insert the ballot are located
on your ballot. The scanner will accept ballots in any orientation – forward, backward or
upside down.
Step Four: Review the screen
Check the display screen to see whether you voted for too many candidates. If you choose
to make changes, select “Don’t Cast-Return” on the touch screen. If you don’t want to make
changes, select “Cast Ballot” on the touch screen. The screen will notify you when your ballot
has been successfully cast.
