The L&A test, conducted at the Canyon County Elections Office, thoroughly examined all aspects of the tabulation programming and confirmed the operational readiness of the election system equipment. The test rigorously assessed candidate positions, offices, and measures, including undervote, write-in, and overvote capabilities, as well as the reporting functions of the system.

Canyon County Clerk Rick Hogaboam emphasized the importance of testing the functionality and accuracy of the equipment, stating, “The public has a right to observe this test and is encouraged to attend.”

The Elections Office welcomed constituents to observe the test and took the opportunity to address questions and demonstrate additional accuracy and verification measures, ensuring transparency and confidence in the voting process.

As the May 21 primary election approaches, the Canyon County Elections Office would like to share some important reminders for voters:

Early, In-Person Voting until May 17: Two locations for early in-person voting are available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. until May 17—the Idaho Hispanic Community Center (315 Stampede Dr., Nampa) and Caldwell Elks Lodge (1015 N. Kimball Ave., Caldwell). Registration is possible during in-person early voting, and any qualified elector in Canyon County may vote at either location.

Election Workers Still Needed: The Canyon County Election Office continues to process interested parties wishing to assist as poll workers. Interested parties are encouraged to visit https://elections.canyoncounty.id.gov/become-a-poll-worker/. With some training classes scheduled for later this week, there is still plenty of time to get interested individuals signed up to help at the poll locations around the county.

Printed, Hand-Marked Ballot Option: Early voting locations and select election day locations will feature a new print-on-demand ballot option for voters who prefer to mark their choices by pen on a printed ballot.

Sample Ballots: Sample ballots are available at Sample-Ballot-Printable.pdf (id.gov). It is highly encouraged that prospective voters come prepared to vote, as ballot choices vary based on political affiliation and jurisdiction.

The Canyon County Elections Office remains committed to conducting fair, secure, and transparent elections encouraging all eligible voters to participate in the democratic process.
