Elections office confirms equipment and supplies ahead of November cycle
Summary
Union County elections staff reported Poll Pads are retired until November, equipment is being charged on schedule, and 40 new printer cartridges have been received with ample ballot paper and printer tape.
At the July 13 meeting, staff reported several operational readiness items for the November election cycle. Poll Pads—the devices that hold the voter database at polling places—have been retired from active use until the November 2026 cycle but remain in good working order, the minutes say. Dr. Ricardo Rivas reported that elections equipment is being charged according to a set schedule to ensure devices are ready.
Elections Superintendent Elizabeth Stevens reported the office has ordered and received 40 new printer cartridges for the November cycle and confirmed adequate stocks of Poll Pad printer tape and specialized ballot paper. The board recorded these logistics items as part of routine pre‑election preparation; no procurement votes were recorded at the July meeting.
