Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
After the polls have
been closed, the election judges shall secure the vote recorders or the voting devices, or both the
vote recorders and the voting devices, against further use and prepare a ballot return in duplicate
showing the number of voters as indicated by the pollbook who have voted in the precinct, the
number of official ballot cards received, and the number of spoiled and unused ballot cards
returned. The original copy of said ballot return shall be deposited in a metal or durable plastic
transfer box, along with all voted and spoiled ballots. The transfer box shall then be sealed in
such a way as to prevent tampering with the box or its contents. The clerk shall provide such a
numbered seal. The duplicate copy of said ballot return shall be mailed at the nearest post office
or post box to the clerk by a judge other than the one who delivers the transfer box to the
counting center. One judge shall deliver the sealed transfer box to the counting center or other
place designated by the clerk.
