LA County's New Ballot Processing Center Is In An Old Fry's Electronics. And You Can Watch The Action Live [View all]

If you're a Los Angeles County voter participating in the primary — we've got a game plan for that, by the way — your ballot will pass through a brand-new facility located in a throwback location: a former Fry's Electronics in the City of Industry.

That's where every ballot in the March 5 primary, as well as future elections, will be directed as part of a countywide initiative to consolidate and heighten security around the ballot counting process, according to Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk Dean Logan.

"We've minimized the need to move ballots around the county to complete the process, and we've opened up a broader opportunity for those who want to observe the process and see the level of security and integrity of the voting process," Logan said.

Even votes that are cast in person will be tabulated, though the facility is also equipped to verify and count ballots sent by mail. About 3 million votes are cast countywide in a major election, according to Logan.
