Herrera Orders Paper Ballot Machines
From Paul Stokes of United Voters NM:
Mary Herrera has confirmed that she has ordered 500 ES&S Model 100 precinct opscans, two ES&S Model 650 central scanners, and AutoMARK ballot marking machines. She said she did not know when purchase orders would be placed by the State.
We can hope that this sets the example for the remaining county clerks who have not yet ordered equipment for converting to paper ballots.
Editor's Note: A new article by Warren Stewart of VoteTrustUSA called "Paper Ballots: The Times They Are A-Changin,’" discusses the move by New Mexico and Maryland to paper ballot systems.
