Dare County Board of Elections to Conduct Voting Machine Tests

The Dare County Board of Elections on September 30, 2022 will conduct Logic and Accuracy (L&A) tests on voting systems that will be used in the November 8, 2022 General Election. L&A testing ensures each voting system will correctly count and tabulate each ballot cast.

Before every election, county boards complete L&A testing to ensure proper coding of ballots and tabulation of votes for every contest.

If you wish to witness the process, L&A tests are open to the public. The public may view the equipment preparation and testing, as long as they do not interfere with the process.
