en · 1,187 chars · active
(a) If ballot labels for an
election district at which an electronic voting system is to
be used, shall not be delivered to the election officers of
that district as required by section 1110-A, 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
insofar as is possible in the same manner as the official
labels. Such labels, so substituted, shall be known as
unofficial ballot labels.
   (b) If any electronic voting system or any component thereof
being used in any election shall become inoperable during such
election, it shall, if possible, be repaired or another machine
substituted by the custodian or county board of elections as
promptly as possible, for which purpose the county board may
purchase as many extra systems or system components as it may
deem necessary, but in case such repair or substitution cannot
be made, paper ballots, either printed or written and of any
suitable form, may be used for registering votes.
