Washington County has found its new voting machines. The County Elections board Monday unanimously voted to go with ‘Election Systems and Software’ of Omaha, Nebraska. They were selected out of five vendors seeking to provide the equipment that will provide a required paper trail when ballots are cast. Washington County Commissioner’s Chairman Larry Maggi says the price tag comes in at more than $2.8 Million dollars but will be paid for with Act 13 money. Maggi says they chose the company, which also supplies voting machines in Greene County, because they had “the best and most reliable machine”. He says it was “more user friendly and offered the most secure functions”. County Commissioners are expected to approve the deal when they meet October 3.
