Tabulation Process

Welcome to the Tabulation series! This series will go over how ballots are counted in the election process.

These are the security measures that ensure only official ballots get counted during the tabulation process.

In this video we will cover the hand count tabulation process.

How do we keep machine counting accurate and secure? That's the subject of this episode of the tabulation series. We'll cover machine certification, logic & accuracy testing and much more!

Let's talk about where tabulation takes place on election day. We break down the different processes for precinct tabulation and central count tabulation.

This episode is all about how tabulation is handled for write-in candidates, what happens to your ballot when you fill in too many selections for a particular race (overvoting), or if you leave a race blank (undervoting).

To close out the tabulation series, let's talk about Canvassing, Recounts, and Certification of elections.
