Ahead of Alabama's Senate election Tuesday, a judge ordered all digital ballot images be saved.
In Alabama, voters fill out paper ballots, which are then digitized and counted. A group of four Alabama voters filed suit last week to preserve those digital images. Those images are usually destroyed after the election, according to the plaintiff's attorney.
