Program
Coconino County Elections, Presenters - Stan Pierce, Elections Training & Outreach Coordinator and Wendy Kasprzyk-Roberts, Elections Administrator
The goal is safe, secure and transparent elections.  They have to print out 192 different ballots, based on the offices in which each voter will cast ballots. For transparency, the tabulator room has live video of counting, the ballots from each polling place are transported in sealed boxes to the tabulator room. At the voting centers and the polling places there are a minimum of 6 persons needed, which are supposed to be as evenly divided among parties as possible, however, this depends on how many members of every party apply to work the polls.  Voting instructions are in 4 languages (English, Spanish, Navajo and Hopi). More people are opting to vote early by mail.
Remember to VOTE!
