A utility cart for storage and/or transport of voting or other machines or supplies in a more convenient and secure manner. The utility cart is capable of supporting a touch-screen voting terminal, separate ballot counter, and multiple (collapsible) voting booths. The cart is generally formed with a pair of opposing side-rails defined by contiguous tubing bent in a closed rectangular loop with one or more pairs of horizontal struts for supporting a suspended shelving unit, wherein the vertical distance between a shelving unit and the corresponding pair of horizontal struts is adjustable to allow for various combinations of differently sized voting equipment to alternately be stored thereon. The suspended shelves further increase the weight capacity of the shelving unit. In a second embodiment, the cart comprises a bumper feature along the bottom edge of a lower deck to allow several carts to be stored or transported together and moved by laypersons while minimizing the likelihood of large impacts to the equipment housed on the carts and the risk of injury to the persons moving said carts.
