| 18. WA: A boost to ballot security |
 Published: Thursday, August 10, 2006 A boost to ballot security County must upgrade before first all-mail vote By Jeff Switzer Herald Writer Elections in Snohomish County are getting a security boost costing nearly a quarter-million dollars. Improvements include computer upgrades and come as the county prepares to switch to all-mail voting in September. The changes are partly required by state law. They were in the works before the County Council voted in January to switch to all-mail elections, county elections manager Carolyn Diepenbrock said. The work is paid for by $240,000 in federal Help America Vote Act grants. The money is being spent to automate how ballots are sorted and tracked. http://www.heraldnet.com/stories/06/08/10/100loc_a1ballot001.cfm |
