Orange County is using optical scanner for this election. March we will be using something called an e-slate machine. I saw one in July and IMO they s**k.

We have used eSlates in Harris County (Houston), Texas for a year now, and, while I was initially skeptical, I now have high confidence in them for many reasons that I won't elaborate on in this thread. The essential thing is to have friendly poll workers help explain the system to voters, particularly computer-shy voters, the first few times. FReepmail me if I can answer any questions about those machines.

I am sure everything will be fine. The thing reminded me of fine tuning a computer monitor (in how you go through the menus). I won't be seeing another until March. We are not using them for the recall.
