On Wednesday, November 4th at 10:00 AM, the Iowa Secretary of State’s Office will randomly select the precincts for a post-election audit of the November 3rd General Election. In Iowa, post-election audits are conducted by performing a hand count of ballots and comparing the results of the hand count to the results tabulated by the voting equipment used on election day. For information on when and where the post-election audit will be held in your county, please contact your county auditor. For information regarding the post-election audit process generally, please contact Molly Widen at molly.widen@sos.iowa.gov.
