Statewide Iowa — The National Association of Secretaries of State Task Force on Vote Verification has released six recommendations for states on handling post-election audits.
Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate was on the bipartisan task force and says the “best practices” are similar to what Iowa already does.
The recommendations include how to handle ballots and being transparent in releasing the results
He says the public is now demanding more information.
Pate says another key recommendation is to get the process set long before the voting starts.
The task force released its recommendations late last week.
