Calaveras County Eases Possible Election Security Concerns |
|
Posted by: News_Desk on 10/25/2016 01:37 PM
|
San Andreas, CA...Concerns are rising about electronic voting systems changing votes or the potential for hackers manipulating the votes. As the Registrar of Voters for Calaveras County the security of our Election is always my top priority. All votes in Calaveras are made on paper ballots. The ballots are then read by a scanner; either at your local polling place or at the Elections Office, but that is not where the vote counting ends. The day after the election we begin an audit often referred to as a canvass.
