Revises procedures governing audits of election results.

This bill revises New Jersey's post-election audit procedures to enhance election integrity. It requires the Secretary of State to appoint an independent audit team each year to oversee manual or third-party electronic audits of voter-verifiable paper records for federal, statewide, and selected local elections. Audits must cover at least 2% of election districts (with exemptions for smaller elections) and must meet strict statistical standards: ensuring 99% confidence for statewide races and 90% for others that a full manual recount wouldn’t change results. The audit team must include statistical and auditing experts, with strict rules barring campaign staff or voting system vendors from participation. These changes directly affect county election officials who must conduct the audits and the Secretary of State who appoints the teams.
