Section 230:35-3-85.2 - Addressing voting device printer failure, election results storage device failure and/or backup memory device failure

(a) In the event that a voting device printer fails and Precinct Officials are unable to print the required Detail and Tally Reports at the polling place, Precinct Officials shall be instructed to post a notice on the door of the polling place that voting device results are unavailable and that results for the precinct will be available from the County Election Board later in the evening. When the election results storage device is read and tabulated in the Tally program, a Precinct Report can be printed to show the results. The Inspector may be asked to take a copy of this report back to the polling place to post on the door before he or she returns home.

(b) In the event that County Election Board personnel are unable to download the results from an election results storage device used in a voting device on election day into the tabulation computer, the County Election Board Secretary immediately shall contact the State Election Board staff for instructions to access the backup memory device in the voting device. In the event that County Election Board personnel are also unable to download results from the backup memory device from a voting device into the tabulation computer, an election night recount of all ballots cast at the precinct polling place shall be conducted as outlined in 230:35-3-85.1.
