Sec. 9-272. Conditions under which use of voting tabulators may be discontinued. - Connecticut Statutes

      Sec. 9-272. Conditions under which use of voting tabulators may be discontinued. If, owing to the number of candidates to be voted upon or owing to inability to obtain a sufficient number of voting tabulators, it is found impracticable to use voting tabulators at any election to be held in any municipality, or in one or more of the voting districts therein, the registrars of voters may discontinue the use of such tabulators for such election in any of the voting districts therein, and shall thereupon cause ballots to be procured and used at such election, as provided by this part, in each of the voting districts wherein the use of voting tabulators has been so discontinued.

      History: 1963 act authorized municipal clerk and registrars rather than board of selectmen, common council or, warden and burgesses to discontinue use of machines; P.A. 07-194 replaced "voting machines" with "voting tabulators" and made technical changes.
