Following the public selection, the Doña Ana County Clerk’s Office will begin the post-election system check on Tuesday, June 16 at 2:00 p.m. at the Preserving History and Democracy Warehouse, located at 2821 Las Vegas Ct., Las Cruces, NM 88007. An update identifying the precincts selected for Doña Ana County will be released on Monday following the completion of the precinct selection process, pending notification by the independent auditing firm.
Under Section 1-14-13.2 NMSA, “for each selected office, the auditor shall publicly select a random sample of precincts from a pool of all precincts in the state no later than twelve days after the election. The random sample shall be chosen in a process that will ensure, with at least ninety percent probability for the selected offices, that faulty tabulators would be detected if they would change the outcome of the election for a selected office.”
The results of the audit must be submitted to the independent auditing firm for review within 14 days of notification of the selected precincts.
