We use the Optech Eagle system which is a proven voting system used across the world processing millions of ballots every year. With an optical scan system, you get the security of an actual paper ballot audit trail combined with the scanner's ability to count your ballots.

Voters are given a preprinted 2 or 3–column ballot which they mark with a number two pencil or an optical scan marking pen. Voters record their selections by completing the arrow opposite the candidate of their choice.
|
|
After voting, the voter feeds his or her ballot into the Optech Eagle where it is tabulated and automatically stored in the locked ballot box. Incorrectly marked ballots can be returned to the voter for review and correction. Write-In votes are separated by the tabulator and put into the locked ballot box. Election results are stored in the memory of the machine's proprietary Optech Memory Pack. When the election is over and the polls are closed, you simply print out the results on the tabulator's printer.
