Meet Nexus — the Next Generation of ClearVote

Engineered for unparalleled transparency and flexibility, Nexus™ is a next-generation paper ballot voting system built to exceed the standards of VVSG 2.0. Unlike other voting systems that require dedicated accessible ballot marking devices or clunky, retrofitted pieces, Nexus is able to be deployed as either a standalone tabulator or a hybrid ballot marking device. Nexus is based on universal ballot integrity: every voter always uses the same human-readable, full-face ballot regardless of voting method; no Barcodes, QR codes, summary ballots ever.

Flexible
ClearVote® Nexus offers unparalleled flexibility with a modular design that allows the same equipment to be used as either a standalone tabulator or tabulator plus ballot marking device with the addition of our thermal printer.
Durable
Nexus features Clear Ballot’s revolutionary thermal ballot printing technology, which produces durable, variable length ballots in seconds while eliminating costly ink and toner cartridges.
Simple
ClearVote Nexus is simple for both poll workers and voters to use, with a combined platform that makes training easier and deployment straightforward.  
Not a Retrofit. A Reinvention.
Built for modern elections, Nexus combines security, accessibility, usability and transparency in a system designed from the ground up to exceed VVSG 2.0 standards.
All-New Thermal Printer
Featuring an industry-first thermal printer that produces full-size paper ballots with no ink or toner, uses less power, and delivers a faster, more efficient voting experience.
Designed for Efficiency
Built to meet the needs of every jurisdiction with one machine, reducing training and maintenance while simplifying Election Day processes and operations. 
Full Size Ballots for Everyone
Every voter casts a human-readable, full-face paper ballot, whether marking by hand or using the Nexus ballot marking device. No summary ballots, ever. 
Human Readable Votes
Nexus never relies on QR codes, barcodes, or OCR to capture or count votes - putting ballot transparency at the forefront of the system. 
Accessibility for All
The optional hands-free adapter makes voting fully accessible, allowing jurisdictions to support all voters with one machine that is efficient and intuitive.
