- Arlington Town Clerk's Annual Report; this is where I live (and vote). "The Town has twenty-one AccuVote machines, one for each precinct, and a main counting system located in the Town Clerk's Office. This system consists of paper ballots to be marked by the voters and inserted into the AccuVote machines, which automatically tally the votes appearing on the paper ballots. When the polls close, the precinct totals are immediately printed at the precinct, posted, announced, and then transferred to the Town Clerk's Office on a memory card, where the precinct totals are accumulated by entering the memory cards into the main counting system. Finally, the complete official town results are printed and announced."
