E-voting storage costs four times higher in Waterford

Fionnán Sheahan, Political Correspondent

While Waterford's Minister Martin Cullen is linked with the e-voting expenditure of 52 million, he is not the county's only notable association with the stalled venture.

The average cost of storing the 7,504 e-voting machines across the country is 62.50 each but in Waterford each machine costs an average of E260 to store for a year the most expensive in the country.
