Bill requiring post-election audits reaches Gov. Ivey's desk

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) - A bill to require some precincts to undergo post-election audits passed Alabama’s House Tuesday evening.

House Bill 95 would require every county probate judge to randomly pick at least one precinct to have a post-election audit.

Each county would be reimbursed by the state costs of the audits, which would happen around a month after a statewide general election.

State republicans have said the bill is about making sure election results reflect the will of the voters.
