en · 1,076 chars · active
(a) If ballot labels for an election district, at which a
voting machine is to be used, shall not be delivered to the
election officers as required by section 1209 (b) (2) of this
act, the judge of election of such district shall cause other
labels to be prepared, printed, or written, as nearly in the
form of official ballot labels as practicable, and the election
officers shall cause the labels, so substituted, to be used at
the election, in the same manner, as near as may be, as the
official labels. Such labels, so substituted, shall be known
as unofficial ballot labels.
   (b) If any voting machine being used in any election shall
become out of order during such election, it shall, if possible,
be repaired or another machine substituted by the custodian or
county election board as promptly as possible, for which purpose
the county board may purchase as many extra voting machines as
they may deem necessary, but in case such repair or substitution
cannot be made, paper ballots, printed or written, and of any
suitable form, may be used for the taking of votes.
