What happens if the results exceed the one-half of one percent?
If the post election review reveals a difference greater than one-half of one percent, the post election review official must (within two days) conduct an additional review of at least three precincts in the same jurisdiction where the discrepancy was discovered. If all precincts in that jurisdiction have been reviewed, the county auditor must immediately and publicly select by lot at least three additional precincts for review. The post election review official of those precincts must complete the additional review within two days after the precincts are selected and report the results immediately to the county auditor. If this subsequent review also indicates a difference that is greater than on-half of one percent, the county auditor must conduct a review of the ballots from all the remaining precincts in the county. This review must be completed no later than six weeks after the state general election.
