CANTON – Stark County's new touchscreen voting machines are rolling into the Board of Elections.
The past couple of weeks, warehouse managers have been accepting shipments of the Dominion Voting Systems ImageCast X machines – which have been a point of controversy in the county. Workers have been opening the boxes, inspecting the machines for damage and testing them.
About 300 of the 1,450 new Dominion voting machines ordered by the Stark County Board of Elections have arrived.

The Board of Elections
filed suit against the commissioners in April, leading to the Ohio Supreme Court decision.
Meanwhile, Look Ahead America, a Washington, D.C., group founded by former Trump campaign staffers, and a Jackson Township resident
filed a lawsuit against the Board of Elections. The group, which says it wants all voting machines' source code to be publicized, alleged the board had met in an illegal closed-door executive session when they deliberated over the purchase of the Dominion machines.
The case is still pending.
Look Ahead America attorney Curt Hartman said with the delays in the legal case that the machines could be used in the Nov. 2 election. But if the judge rules in favor of his client, it would be the county's responsibility to unwind its deal with Dominion.
