Election Integrity and Security – Tests/Audits

Election security is a top priority for the Orange County Registrar of Voters. Security measures for the 2024 Presidential General Election include testing and audits to ensure the integrity of the election process, including the following:

We test the accuracy of all ballot scanners before and after the election.
We hand count ballots from at least 1% of all precincts – randomly selected – to ensure the voting system tally is accurate.
We confirm before and after the election that the certified voting system software has not been modified.

Additionally, all votes are cast on paper ballots, and the vote tally system is not connected to the internet.

Open House – Save the Date

You are invited to an Open House at the Orange County Registrar of Voters on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, from 4 to 7 p.m. at our headquarters, 1300 S. Grand Avenue, Building C in Santa Ana.

The Open House will enable you to view the various steps we take when processing and tallying ballots during each election. Members of the Registrar of Voters team will demonstrate and answer questions about our processes to ensure elections are secure, fair, accurate, transparent, and accessible.

We will demonstrate and answer questions about our secure processes, including:

Collection of ballots from ballot drop boxes and Vote Centers, utilizing chain-of-custody processes
Mail ballot signature comparison
Scanning of ballots and tabulation of votes
Testing and auditing of election equipment and software
