Carteret County Ditches Touch-Screen Voting

Carteret County's Board of Elections permanently pulled the plug on those UniLect machines that caused all the mischief last November and will attempt to restore voter confidence with a different balloting system to be found prior to this fall's municipal elections. Paper ballots are in the running.

We trust the Watauga County Board of Elections will abandon its flirtation with touch-screen technology too, before something similar to the Carteret fiasco happens here.
