Omaha firm ES&S plans for the worst on Election Day: No power
Source: Omaha World Herald
By Ross Boettcher
If polling places along the East Coast are without power on Election Day, an Omaha company faces a powerful test.
With much of the coast bracing for damage and prolonged power outages from the storm called Sandy, election officials and providers of voting equipment, including Omaha-based Electronic Systems & Software, spent Monday hashing out contingency plans, backup contingency plans and backup-backup contingency plans in case polling places remain without power on Nov. 6.
ES&S, the nation's largest provider of voting equipment and software, has contracts with counties in states all along the Eastern Seaboard, including New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Virginia and Washington, D.C. Overall, the company will collect, process and report ballots from 4,000 counties in 41 states, including in Nebraska and Iowa.
ES&S has 450 employees, and more than half of them are in the Omaha headquarters at 11208 John Galt Blvd.
