NBCNewYork.com described the email voting system:Essex County Clerk Chris Durkin told NBC 4 New York the program is being run on an honor system, relying on voters to only use the system if they truly can't get to his or her polling place.
The procedure, according to Durkin, will be to call or email the county clerk to get a ballot application emailed to you.
Once filled out, you email it back, then get the ballot itself emailed to you.
Durkin said you fill the ballot out and email it back, where it will be printed, held several days and cross checked to make sure you didn't vote some other way.
Since officials couldn't figure out a way to confirm a voters name and print the completed ballot witout an election worker looking the voters' choices while handling the ballots, voters will have to check off a waiver of privacy.
Re: NJ voters can vote by e-mail
Haha, that same thought went through my head. I think it said they can vote at their town clerk's office or maybe they'll set up other areas where they can do it. I just think it's gonna be a huge mess. Maybe not so much the national but the local.
Our public library still has no email service.
Exactly. I won't be surprised if they're re-doing their local elections later on.
