| 12 | each early voted ballot. In order for a branch office to be used |
| 13 | for early voting, it shall be a permanent facility of the |

| 15 | at least 1 year prior to the election. The supervisor may also |

| 18 | designated, the sites must be geographically located so as to |
| 19 | provide all voters in the county an equal opportunity to cast a |
| 20 | ballot, insofar as is practicable. The results or tabulation of |
| 21 | votes cast during early voting may not be made before the close |
| 22 | of the polls on election day. Results shall be reported by |
| 23 | precinct. |
