PIERRE - Secretary of State Chris Nelson said Friday he has reached a $4.6 million deal with an Omaha company to supply touch-screen voting machines for every South Dakota county.

Touch-screen voting machines are required by the federal Help America Vote Act, and 95 percent of the cost will be paid with federal funds, Nelson said. The contract is with Election Systems & Software, a company that provided optical-scan voting equipment to 50 of the state's 66 counties.
