Post election audit conducted

Montgomery County conducted a post-audit on June 15.
The audit was conducted under the law designed to monitor and protect election processes.  The audit was a perfect match to the results canvassed for the 2022 Primary Election.
The law requires the Secretary of State to call for a post-election audit in a randomly chosen precinct in each county.  County Auditors supervise a hand count of votes in a given race on the ballots from that precinct.  By random selection, Precinct 1 was audited.  The polling place location for Precinct 1 is the Gold Fair Building.  
“We have high confidence in the security measures we take for elections.” said Montgomery County Auditor Stephanie Burke. “The post-election audit is a good way to prove that the confidence is well-founded.”
Anyone with questions about the post-election audit and other election matters may be directed to the Montgomery County Auditor’s office at 623-5127.
