That’s how it is in Georgia to. You make your selection, receive a print out which has your chooses visible on kt, put that into the counting machine which is next to a table where you get your I voted sticker so it’s monitored for tampering. They then take your print out and put it in a box for manual recounts if called for.
Florida has a different orb weaver that is native. These are smaller but much more prolific. Northish Georgia for me and we have to clear them out of place we walk like our vegetable garden or front door at least once a week.
