Understanding the critical importance of security, voter privacy, as well as compliance with the U.S. Department of Labor and the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act is the hallmark of any productive relationship between an election management company and labor unions.

The Key To Our Election Services
Aside from the individuals involved, the equipment is crucial. We utilize the Dominion ICP® system, a reliable voting solution implemented globally that manages millions of ballots each year. In the voting process, voters insert their ballots into the Dominion ICP®, which counts them and securely stores them in the locked ballot box. Voters can review and correct any incorrectly marked ballots that are returned. Write-in votes are separated by the tabulator and placed into the locked ballot box. Union election results are retained in the machine's proprietary memory pack, and once the union election concludes, the results can be easily printed directly from the tabulator's printer.
