» Turning Voting Equipment Quickly for Recall Election Proves Challenging
Shown at right Registrar staff work to prepare voting booths for the Capistrano Recall election this morning.  This process includes resetting the booths to prepare them for the new election.  We will begin to distribute the equipment to poll sites for the June 24th election this coming Monday.  Providing such a quick turnaround requires additional efforts as we finalize the June Primary election.  
 
» Rosters Reconciled for Primary Election              Prior to certification we must go through each roster to determine the number of voters who signed the roster.  We then compare that total to our votes cast figures.  We must reconcile each one (for example if a provisional ballots was cast and the voter signed the incorrect roster).  This process is a part of the official canvas of the votes cast.
