The ballots will be called up on a touch screen machine using a code generated by the election judge. The voter will use a touch screen to make choices, then print the ballot. If the voter realizes the ballot needs changing, it can be turned in to the election judge and a new ballot generated

If the ballot is correct, it is then scanned and counted.

There will be a paper backup for every ballot.
