Brazos County Not Affected by Faulty Election Equipment

More than 60 Texas counties are working to replace a key piece of voting equipment before the next round of city and school elections. Brazos County Elections Administrator Trudy Hancock says during November’s election, a large county had issues with its electronic pollbook or pollpad. “The pollpad is what you check in with, the first table that you go to and show your ID,” says Hancock. According to the Texas Tribune, several thousand voters in Dallas County received the wrong ballot after checking in on the e-pollbook. Hancock says the now decertified vendor is not the one used in Brazos County. “It did not affect us and will not affect Brazos County in any way,” says Hancock. Hancock says voting security in Texas is stronger because each county decides what election system to use. “There’s not one vendor for pollpads, there’s not just one vendor for election equipment or the system you vote on. That helps with security,” says Hancock. Hancock says this prevents bad actors from studying one system and potentially finding loop holes.
