Why is there a QR code on my ballot?

You can read who you voted for, and the tabulator machine reads the same information from the QR code! This makes the counting process more efficient, so you can know who won sooner.

We audit the election by comparing a hand-count of the voter-verifiable information to the machine count to confirm that the machine counted correctly.
