Using a sharpie on your ballot IS OK.
Your ballot WILL COUNT.
Yes, the ink could bleed through if you use one to fill out your 🗳, but that’s not going to cause an issue when tabulating your ballot.
@MaricopaVote says their machines only read the ovals for each contest. Even if a bleed thru happens- the contests are “off-set”
AKA not printed back to back, so ink bleed thru isn’t marking another contest oval.
If you voted on #ElectionDay in @MaricopaVote 🌵your ballot was counted right in front of you at the vote center where you filled it out. That machine you scanned it into counted your vote right then and there.
If there was a problem, it would have given you a notification or spit it back out.
I.E, if you left a contest blank or voted for more than one person.

There’s a crowd outside @MaricopaVote tonight. Just formed about an hour ago or so. They’re trying to gain access inside the tabulation center and claiming to be journalists. #ABC15
At least one woman a know member of the AZ Patriots Movement, a well known valley extremist group. They’re asking questions about #SharpieGate, and whether county elections are still accepting votes.
