Currently, Section 24j of the Election Law requires a county board of canvassers to inspect ballot boxes every four years and designate whether or not a box meets the Law's requirements. A ballot box that has not been approved by the board may not be used to store voted ballots. The bill would refer to a ballot "container", rather than a ballot "box". The bill would define "ballot container" as a container used for transporting and storing voted ballots, as described and approved under Section 24j. The bill provides that a ballot container would include a ballot box, transfer case, or other container used to secure ballots, including optical scan ballots and electronic voting systems and data.
