Ward County Auditor Marisa Haman, left, Deputy Auditor Misty Hester, center, and District 40 Republican Chair Feliciana Castaneda, right, check ballot results from public testing of Ward County’s voting machines Friday, Oct. 23, in the Ward County commissioners chambers. The auditor’s office ran multiple tests on the 19 different ballot types required for the various precincts in the Nov. 3 election. The testing ensures machines are producing an accurate count before being put to use starting Monday, Oct. 26, in early voting at the Ward County Administration Building.
