Why did San Mateo County choose the eSlate voting system?
The new eSlate Voting System has the three qualities that are essential in a voting system to meet the new federal requirements. It is accessible, secure and easy to use. It also allows the voter to see and review a printed paper record of the votes they are casting or to confirm their choices by way of an audio playback. The printed copy is viewed through a clear cover on the printer that ensures no one can tamper with the ballot.
