Regulation Text
Participating counties shall conduct a risk-limiting audit on one or more contests fully contained within the county's borders. Participating counties may conduct opportunistic reviews of contests not subject to audit, including cross-jurisdictional contests, from the same sample of ballot cards by entering voter selections from those contests into the RLA software tool. The results of opportunistic reviews shall not be considered confirmation to any risk limit of the outcomes of these contests.
