(MENAFN) Alabama election officials are demanded by a judge to "preserve all digital ballots" one day ahead of the Alabama Senate special election.
AL.com reported that after a lawsuit was filed of four Alabama voters calling for the state to preserve the records under state and federal law, the response came when Montgomery County Circuit Judge Roman Ashley Shaul issued the injunction Monday afternoon.
In the order, the judge wrote "all counties employing digital ballot scanners in the Dec. 12, 2017 election are hereby ordered to set their voting machines to save all processed images in order to preserve all digital ballot images."
