Senate Bill 1661 amends the Election Code to restrict the ballot scan system that an authority operating a central counting station may purchase or use to a system that is only capable of using a data transfer media device that meets the following criteria:
· once a cast vote record is written, the device is incapable of being modified without automatic detection of the modification and automatic rejection of the cast vote record; and
· the device does not allow the automatic detection and rejection of a modified cast vote record to be overridden or circumvented.
