Voting Equipment

Nassau County uses ES&S DS200 equipment, a paper-based system of digital precinct scanners, at  early voting and precinct locations.

Nassau County uses the ES&S DS850 high-speed optical scanners at the Elections office to process Vote-by-Mail ballots.

To comply with federal and state mandates, we have recently added ExpressVote ballot marking devices to make voting accessible to individuals with disabilities.  Each early voting and precinct location will have at least one ExpressVote device.  The vendor is Election Systems & Software.

This ballot marking device uses a paper ballot and allows the option of a touchscreen or audio headset function to mark your ballot.  The screen has large-print capability and adjustable screen contrast for better viewing.  The Expressvote will mark and return your ballot.  The voter then reviews and inserts the ballot into the DS200 tabulator.
