Arkansas SBEC rates Saline County voting equipment
100% ACCURATE in post-election audit
Saline County, AR- The Arkansas State Board of Election Commissioners (SBEC) conducted a 2024 post-election audit and rated Saline County’s vote tabulator count as 100% ACCURATE.
The SBEC conducted the audit of the 2024 Primary Election results by hand counting 5,320 votes from early voting, election day, and absentee ballots in Saline County, which is 29.4% of the total votes cast in the 2024 Primary Election. (18,076 votes were cast in the 2024 Primary Election in Saline County)
In 2019 the Arkansas State Legislature approved legislation giving the SBEC authority to conduct post-election audits. Saline County was one of 15 counties randomly selected for this year’s post-election audit.
The Saline County Clerk’s Office conducts a thorough logic and accuracy test of every election machine during each election. All logic and accuracy tests of the machines are open to the public.
“Our office consistently exceeds standards to ensure the accuracy of our voting machines for each election. Today’s audit reaffirms that our election results are accurate and our voting equipment is both safe and secure,” said Saline County Clerk Doug Curtis.
“Accountability is paramount in ensuring election integrity. The results of 100% accuracy revealed by the State Board of Election Commissioners was not a surprise but certainly speaks to the dedication of our Saline County Clerk, his very competent staff, Saline County Election Commissioners, poll workers and all of those involved in our local elections. I could not be more proud of all involved in this most important process,” said Saline County Judge Matt Brumley.
