The Harris County Clerk’s Office Elections Department is conducting logic and accuracy testing Monday on ballot machines in preparation for the November 7 joint general and special elections.
According to a news release, the elections staff will conduct a “mock election” at the Election Technology Center, where all possible combinations of ballots are manually voted on and then compared to control files.
The Texas Election Code requires this testing to verify that the voting equipment and ballots being used in the upcoming election accurately display the ballot, register choices, and tabulate the results correctly. Representatives from both political parties are present and observe the entire process, the department said.Copyright 2023 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.
