Cabinet Office hope to have it rolled out for local elections next year
A new voting count system was introduced at the Port St Mary Commissioner's by-election this week.
It's called a 'kangaroo' - the papers are layered in between a piece of clear plastic, votes are counted in a row and tallied at the end of the board.
Frank Carolan, Head of Crown and Elections at the Cabinet Office hopes the new approach will be rolled out at more elections:
Clerk Hayley Kinvig said the process was 'smooth':
Man spared jail after £46,000 phone thefts
The Wing recommended for approval
Manx Radio's speech output falls below that required by licence agreement
