Bill Summary
An act to add Article 5.5 (commencing with Section 15365) to Chapter 4 of Division 15 of, and to repeal Section 15560 of, the Elections Code, relating to elections.
AI Summary
This bill authorizes the use of risk-limiting audits in lieu of the 1% manual tally of ballots beginning with the March 3, 2020, statewide primary election. A risk-limiting audit is a post-election process that involves hand-to-eye, human inspection of ballots to verify the electoral outcome, with a strict limit on the probability that an incorrect outcome will pass the audit without being corrected. The bill requires the Secretary of State to adopt regulations to implement and administer these risk-limiting audits, and repeals the existing postcanvass risk-limiting audit pilot program.
