It captures clean easy to read ballot and write-in images in both color and black & white. The OVCS system will read absentee, recount, Early Voting, Vote Center and Election Day ballots. The results are uploaded to the OpenElect Central Scan (OCS) Tabulator without intermediate steps. The OVCS software will provide you with a variety of reports on Election Day, such as Write-in and Summary reports.
