Statute Text

In precincts where an electronic vote tabulating device is used, as soon as the polls are closed the poll workers shall compare the total number of voters indicated by the electronic vote tabulating device with the list of voters to ensure that the number recorded by the tabulator is the same as the number of voters shown on the list of voters who received a ballot at the polling site.
