The current machines, known as the ExpressVote, are touch-screen machines that produce a paper ballot once the voter has finalized their selections. The printed ballot will provide voters with another opportunity to confirm their choices. Once satisfied, voters will insert the paper ballot into a ballot scanner known as the DS200, which is where their ballot is counted and securely stored for transport back to the elections board.
