Abstract
A secure document collection and storage container includes an opening positioned at or below a top edge of the front facet, and above a midpoint of the front facet. The opening is sized to receive ballots or test documents into the container. In some embodiments, a flap to cover the opening extends from a fold line of a segment of a top facet of the container. Facet edges that form the top seams and other seams of the container may include guide markings for guiding the placement of a sealing material. Also or alternatively, a sealing material may be placed over the guide markings.
