Palm Beach County Residents Were Invited To Witness “Life Of A Ballot.”

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — The Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Office has wrapped up its latest round of Elections Experience Tours, giving residents from across the county an inside look at how their votes actually get handled. The tours are part of a broader push by the office to pull back the curtain on a process most voters never see.
Attendees walked through the entire lifecycle of a ballot — how it’s prepared, tested, secured, counted, audited and ultimately certified. They also got to check out the office’s election equipment up close and fire off questions directly to Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link and her staff.
“Our goal has always been to provide voters with firsthand knowledge of how elections are conducted,” Link said in a statement to BocaNewsNow.com. “When people can see the process for themselves, they leave with a greater understanding of the many safeguards in place to protect every vote. These tours are one of the best ways we build confidence through transparency.”
The tours run year-round as part of the office’s ongoing voter education and outreach efforts, aimed at county residents and community groups who want a behind-the-scenes look at work that doesn’t stop when Election Day ends. The Elections Team thanked everyone who turned out and asked questions, and said residents interested in future tours should keep an eye on VotePalmBeach.gov and the office’s social media channels for upcoming dates.
