AI Summary

This bill, the Federal Election Audit Act, amends the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to allow states to use federal election requirements payments to conduct post-election audits. The bill defines "nonvoting election technology" as systems used in election administration that are not directly involved in casting, counting, or tabulating ballots. It also sets requirements for these audits, including that no individual conducting the audit can be an employee or contractor of the state or local election office. The bill expresses the sense of Congress that post-election audits are most effective when completed before the period during which election results can be legally challenged.
