Vote Recommendation Notes
We are neutral on this bill. This legislation would prohibit the use of a paper ballot if there is a voting system in place for use at a polling location. On one hand, we support this legislation to reduce the potential for voter fraud, however, this could also prevent the casting of ballots if a voting machine(s) malfunction and can no longer be used. Due to our support and opposition off-setting, we remain neutral.
