District 6, home of the White Horse Fire Co., has printed 250 ballots, giving itself a cushion over the 117 voters who cast ballots last year, Szabo said.
Despite what might only be a trickle of voters, the use of paper ballots could cause delays -- especially in the time it takes to count votes after polls close.
Oh. The dreaded "paper ballot delays".
A bill delaying the paper trail requirement until state or federal funding is secured to pay for the changes passed the state assembly on Thursday.
The state senate has not yet voted on it, but Monroe expected movement before March, when some areas of the state might hold special elections.
"They're working on (the bill) now, and I understand some parts of the state have special elections for March, and that should be reversed by then," Monroe said. "We will be able to use (the voting machines) in the school board election" in April.
It's like pulling hippopotamus teeth to get folks to unhand their paperless voting machines.
