4. Optical Scanner

Oct 2017

We do vote on paper in Fairfax and the entire stasyecwill be on paper in 2018. The scanner reads the ballot and the paper ballot matches it up. Democrats in VA are energized because we know That this election will stop the gerrymandering that has ruined our state Legislature. This will not be your standard off year election. Same for 2018.
