Summary

The board approved an amendment to the county’s Dominion Voting Systems master agreement to add ballot‑on‑demand printers that the clerk’s office budgeted for this year.

The Elko County Board of Commissioners approved an amendment to the master agreement with Dominion Voting Systems to add ballot‑on‑demand printers the clerk’s office had budgeted for.

Rebecca Blunkett, Elko County clerk, told the board the amendment adds ballot‑on‑demand printers that were included in the clerk’s recently approved budget. She confirmed the master agreement contains a termination clause stating that if funding is not incorporated the agreement may be void. The amendment is an addendum to the existing contract to include the newly budgeted equipment and services.

During public comment Scott Gavorski of the Elko County Republican Party asked that the record reflect his understanding that the additional equipment and the new printers “has been mandated by an executive order to make the elections more secure.” The clerk’s office did not dispute the public comment as a statement of a constituent's understanding; the board proceeded to vote.

Ending: The board approved the amendment by voice vote and directed staff to process contract documents as required by the county clerk’s office.
