## Caption

A newly released surveillance video shows a ballot scanner being removed from Maricopa County’s Election & Tabulation Center while votes were being counted during a Tempe election earlier this year.

County officials say the scanner was taken off-site and later returned. Maricopa County ultimately replaced the machine, saying it had been compromised, at a reported cost of $70,000.

The incident is now part of an ongoing dispute between the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and the Recorder’s Office over election equipment and oversight.
