Want to see what the ballot may look like Nov 2, 2010?

FYI: Although most of the instructions on the ballot seem straight forward such as (Vote for 1), the instructions for voting for Council-at-Large are somewhat misleading. You may vote for up to 3 candidates even though it says (vote for 3). What does this mean? It means that if you only see ONE (1) candidate that you want to vote for, you can vote for JUST ONE CANDIDATE and your vote will still count. You don't have to vote for people you don't want to vote for.

Want to practice voting before Nov 2nd? Fayette County uses the Hart Intercivic eSlate Voting System. The eSlate unit is a direct recording electronic (DRE) voting device that allows voters to view, vote, and record electronic ballots. The eSlate employs a unique "wheel and button" design that offers triple redundancy of stored cast ballot data, a verifiable paper audit trail, and a system audit log. The unique SELECT Wheel is more precise, more durable, and therefore more reliable than touch screen machines while remaining easy to use. The lower portion of the eSlate unit includes a set of distinctly shaped control buttons. These features enable the voter to review the ballot and cast votes independently, securely, and accurately.

The eSlate system provides an accessible unit for voters with a disability. The accessible unit provides a non-visual method of voting that includes touch controls and audible playback of operating instructions and ballot content. There will be an accessible unit available in every precinct.
