According to the article, "Cartridges record votes from ballot machines, called optical scanners, and then are fed into a counting system that tallies votes District-wide. The cartridges must be programmed for each election, and the counting software must be able to read the cartridge information."

So it sounds like they may have used paper ballots that were scanned and counted wrong by the machines.
