麻豆影院's Office Initiates Post-Election Audit
Tuesday, November 5, 2024
TOPEKA 鈥� In accordance with K.S.A. , the 麻豆影院鈥檚 office will initiate the 2024 general election post-election audit at 9 a.m. on November 6.
As part of this process, the Secretary of State鈥檚 office will randomly select one federal, one legislative, and one county race for auditing in each county.
Once selections are made, each county election office will be notified of the races to be audited. Each county election office will then randomly select 1% of the precincts within each selected race to be audited.
Ballots from these selected precincts will be hand counted to verify that the hand count aligns with the tabulated vote count. Audits will be conducted by a sworn bipartisan election board, consisting of trained members.
Post-election audits were first conducted in 2019 under Secretary Schwab鈥檚 administration.
鈥淧ost-election audits promote election transparency and verify election results,鈥� said Schwab.
Audits must be completed before the county canvass, which must take place by November 18. For more information on post-election audits in your county, please contact your county election office HERE.
