Long-term Roles (Special Board Workers)

Special Board Workers will work up to four weeks prior to Election Day and up to two weeks after Election Day at the Coconino County Elections Facility and comprise of the following: 
 
COUNTING BOARD: The Counting Board is responsible for running the ballot batches provided by the Early Board through the ballot tabulation machines. The Counting Board will balance and account for each ballot within each batch to ensure each ballot has been processed correctly. The Counting Board will out-sort damaged ballots for the Duplication Board and is responsible for sealing ballots in their containers and securing the ballot containers inside their storage location.
 
DUPLICATION BOARD: The Duplication Board is responsible for the duplicating of damaged ballots onto a new ballot for tabulation. If a ballot is damaged and cannot be read by the tabulation machine, the Counting Board will out sort that ballot and transfer it to the Duplication Board. The Duplication Board will print a new ballot of the same ballot style as the damaged ballot and assign the original ballot and duplicate ballot a unique number. Duplicate ballots will be marked with the word Duplicate and original ballots will be marked with the word Original. The Duplication Board will transpose the votes from the damaged ballot onto the duplicate ballot, so the votes can be read by the machine and will return the duplicate ballots to the Counting Board for tabulation. The Duplication Board will log each ballot that is duplicated and seal and store the original ballots in their designated containers.
