SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The Minnehaha County Election Review Committee today offered 13 recommendations in an effort to avoid hours-long delays election night.

Committee Chair Bruce Danielson says the Commission should purchase a third ballot scanner.

Danielson says both of the new voter scanning machines were proved fallible.  Now, Danielson asks, will the resolution board have to be convened to hand count all the ballots?

The recommendations also include providing more resolution boards election night and making sure the voter list, or data base, is controlled only by the County Auditor's Office.              

In last November's election, Minnehaha County’s results weren’t final until 9:15 the morning after polls closed,  The Commission will review the recommendations before approving any.
