Abstract
A system for separating write-in entries from the paper ballots electronically without resorting to manual or mechanical separation is configured to detect when a write-in selection is made in a designated write-in area of a paper ballot as a paper ballot is read through a digital scanner or other imaging device. An image of the write-in entry area (a sub-image of the total ballot) is then extracted and stored with appropriate data keys on a storage medium for later retrieval and processing by qualified personnel.
