RE: What is Boulder County trying to hide?



Some voters will object to voting with a ballot that is not secret, and will “white out” or cross out the serial number that uniquely identifies their ballot

[|>] The bar code on the sides of the ballots identify the ballot style, not the individual ballot. Ballot style is about what issues a person can vote on in a particular geographical location. My wife and I would have the same ballot style in a general election, but different in a primary. We live in the same house, but we are members of different parties. I get a Libertarian ballot, she gets a Democratic ballot. If we were members of the same party the barcodes would be identical.

A few blocks from here I have a friend who is a Libertarian. His ballot style is different, because he lives in a different precinct. His barcodes look different from mine.
