ATLANTA — Election deniers lookout.
Elections officials in Georgia’s 159 counties have completed a statewide audit of the 2024 presidential election, confirming the outcome. The process, which began last Thursday, involved a hand count of randomly selected ballots with a 5% risk limit, one of the most stringent standards in the nation for risk-limiting audits.
County officials reviewed 442 batches of ballots, of which 381, or 86.1%, showed no discrepancies from the original vote totals. Any deviations for the other 61 batches were within the expected margin of error for a hand count, according to a release from Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
