Update from the County Clerk's office....returns will be delayed

Henry Atkins, the vendor that provides the uplink for the vote printouts is down. Currently we are contacting other clerk's offices to see if this outage is affecting other counties as well.

Here is a short explanation of how votes are counted:

As you vote and place your ballot in the machine, your vote is tabulated and counted. When the election officials bring the returns to the courthouse, election officials take memory cards from each precinct and they are downloaded on to the Henry Atkins uplink and the election returns are then printed out.

Those results will the be announced on FM-92, www.batescounty.net and here on Bates County Live. Again, until the uplink is re established, election returns will be delayed.
