L is for Logic and Accuracy Tests! Did you know that Ottawa County is unique in that we own the election equipment & share the costs with our Local Clerks! This means that the County conducts our own LATs! About a month before each election, our office goes to each jurisdiction that will be holding an election to test their machines for accuracy. We look at the markings on a ballot, seal numbers, and test for any common errors. These meetings are open to the public so feel free to stop by our next L & A to check out the process!
