An Update Regarding the Use of Stickers for Write-In Candidates

Recently, an article was published in the Standard Press regarding the use of stickers for write-ins.  Shortly after the article was published, the City received updated information. Pursuant to this information, Stickers should NOT be used for write-ins.

While some documents may refer to the use of stickers for write-in votes, stickers are NOT to be used on ballots - this language was removed from statute years ago.  Stickers should also not be used per the maintenance agreement for the voting equipment.  

According to the ImageCast Election Hardware Maintenance Agreement Terms and Conditions, “The use of any applied adhesive label and/or ”sticker” to a ballot for write-in campaigns or otherwise that cause any damage to the equipment or result in additional repair work are not covered by equipment agreement and will be the responsibility of the Customer”.

Repair work related to stickers damaging the internal workings of a tabulator both void the tabulator warranty and can have costs for repair/replacement that starts at $1,750.  Stickers or any foreign object can cause ballot misreads and/or ballot jams for other ballots cast as well.
