Vernon Kemp, center, IT Elections Systems Coordinator for Beaufort County Board of Elections, and Randy Schmidt, poll clerk for Lady’s Island precincts 2B and 2C, scan a pre-selected “problem ballot” during the public testing of the ballot tabulation machines to be used in Saturday’s Republican presidential primary. Kemp said one or two ballots will be given incorrect information of various sorts. The DS450 tabulation machine, which is used to count paper early voting ballots, will read the error and kick out the ballot for further inspection. Everything worked properly, as expected.
