Marion County, IN deploys nearly 300 vote centers with Election Systems & Software

Marion County, Indiana faced the challenge of modernizing its elections by replacing aging equipment and transitioning from neighborhood-based polling places to a vote center model. The county needed a secure, reliable system from a vendor like Election Systems & Software that could handle 1,400 different ballot styles, support nearly 300 vote centers, and provide an auditable paper trail for all voters.

Election Systems & Software implemented its ExpressVote universal voting system and DS200 scanners to provide a fully-auditable, ADA-compliant solution. The results were highly successful, allowing Marion County to deploy the new equipment across all vote centers for the 2019 election. The transition was smooth for both voters and poll workers, with voters appreciating the easy-to-use system that gave them two opportunities to verify their selections before casting a paper ballot.
