Amends and adds to existing law to provide for postelection audits of selected paper ballots in certain elections by the Secretary of State.

This legislation would direct the Secretary of State to order a postelection audit of certain election results after a general or primary election, using procedures he would be required to provide to county clerks at least 60 days prior to the election. Conducting such an audit would increase public confidence in election results by checking the paper ballots, which exist for each and every vote cast in Idaho, against the election results that the counties tabulate and report for the audited precincts. Audit findings could result in the Secretary of State ordering the audit of additional ballots.
