HARTFORD — Secretary of the State, Denise Merrill, announced Thursday that the results from randomly selected polling locations across the state audited following the September 10th primary elections.
Five percent of polling places are subject to the audit, as prescribed by Connecticut General Statutes 9-320f. Those manually counted ballots will be matched against vote totals from optical-scan machines.
“Auditing election results is one of the strongest protections we have in place to ensure that the results of Connecticut’s elections accurately reflect the votes cast in that election,” said Merrill. “Our top priority is to make sure that every Connecticut voter knows that our elections are secure. Our highest priority remains to conduct free and fair elections that count every vote.”
Here are the places which will be audited:
