Recount, audit, canvass — what’s it all about?

 From The Daily Planet

Statewide election results — posted on the Secretary of State’s web site

Canvass is the county-by-county vote report turned in to the Secretary of State’s office, and reflected in the figures on the Secretary of State’s web site.

 

Audit is the legally-required hand recount of selected precincts to make sure that machine totals are not significantly different from actual totals. This is done after every election. That just-completed audit resulted in the change of ony six votes in the Senate race.

State Canvassing Board, made up of two Supreme Court judges, two District Court judges and the Secretary of State, will meet on November 18 to certify the count and official election results.


Recount will begin AFTER the State Canvassing Board meets on November 18 and officially orders a recount. The recount takes place in more than a hundred locations across the state, conducted by local election officials and then reported back to the State Canvassing Board.


Recount is required by state law whenever the vote margin between the two top candidates is less than one-half of one percent.MORE
