South Australian Consolidated Regulations South Australian Consolidated Regulations (1) The
returning officer may decide to use a computer program to carry out steps
involved in the recording, scrutiny or counting of votes in an election.
(2) However, the
returning officer cannot do so unless the returning officer is reasonably
satisfied that the proper use of the program would produce the same result in
the recording, scrutiny or counting of votes as the result that would be
achieved if the program were not to be used.
(3) If a computer
program is used, the method of counting votes under Schedule 1 may be modified
according to the determination of the returning officer.
