ACI has partnered with the Union County Board of Elections to let voters know about their new ExpressVote XL voting machine. The ExpressVote XL full-face universal voting system displays the full ballot on a 32-inch interactive screen and produces an independent voter-verifiable paper record. Many counties are rolling this type of machine out in time for the next election. This is your chance to test out the machine, ask questions, give your input BEFORE they are put into official service.
