ROBERT COX --WHY WESTCHESTER'S ELECTION DAY BALLOTS ARE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE USED DURING EARLY VOTING

WHITE PLAINS, NY (Nov. 3, 2026) — The countywide rejection of paper ballots by voting machines Tuesday morning has raised an obvious question among Westchester voters: Why did the machines appear to work normally during nine days of early voting but suddenly refuse to accept ballots on Election Day?

One possible explanation involves a fundamental difference between how ballots are produced for early voting and how they are prepared for Election Day, according to New York state election laws, regulations and Westchester County election training materials. The documents establish that Westchester adopted ballot-on-demand printing for early voting in 2021, while its documented Election Day procedures rely on preprinted ballots distributed in numbered books.
