Board of Elections Regular Monthly meeting & Sample Audit

 SAMPLE AUDIT

The sample hand-count audit is a test to ensure that voting equipment reads voters’ choices accurately. Bipartisan teams at every county board of elections conduct this audit after every election. The audit compares election results counted by voting equipment with hand counts of ballots from randomly selected voting sites.

This hand count is open to the public and completed before each county certifies its results. This requirement has been part of every North Carolina election — big or small — since 2006.
