Tally Test Deck
Before tallying, insert the USB drive used to save the test deck CVR file into the Election Manager. All tabulation functionality in Election Manager is available within the Tally tab.
First click Tally to access the tally tab and then click Load CVR Files. In the file dialog, select the file exported from Ballot Scanner (cvrs-[election-name].jsonl) and click Open.
When loaded, confirm that the presented file name, count and precinct(s) are as expected. You may also review the ballot count by precinct and view any unofficial tally reports as desired.
Once reviewed, scroll to the Total Ballot Count and click View Unofficial Election Tally. Click Print Unofficial Tally Report to print results or Save Unofficial Tally Report to save the election tally to a USB drive.

Compare the expected test deck results report to the tally report. These reports should match exactly. If desired, you may also manually tally the test deck ballots and check that manual tally against the scanned results.
