Since the August 2008 Primary Election, countywide elections in Collier County have been conducted using the Election Systems & Software (ES&S)DS200 – a paper-based optical scan voting system. Voters insert their marked ballots directly into the DS200 which scans the ballot to capture and tabulate the vote. After scanning, the ballot automatically drops into the secured ballot box below.
Designed to better capture voter intent and improve the election experience, the DS200 is user-friendly. If a voter attempts to cast a blank ballot and/or over-vote a contest, the DS200 will notify the voter giving them an opportunity to correct the ballot.
During early voting and on Election Day, ADA compliant iVotronic touch-screens are also available and may be used by individuals with disabilities.
