For early voting, the registrar, in the presence of at least one early voting official representing each political party, shall use the Officer #1 key to lock the machine against voting. The candidates' counters shall not be exposed. The "polls open" switch shall not be moved in order to prevent revealing the machine's vote totals for each candidate. The machine shall be locked and sealed. The machine shall be stored inside the election commission office or in a secure location to be determined by a majority of the members of the county election commission.
