VSTOP (Voting System Technical Oversight Program) will conduct a post-election audit on Delaware County’s 2024 General Election on Tuesday, December 3rd at 10:00 a.m. at the Delaware County Building (Basement). Delaware County is one of seven counties on the 2024 General Election Audit Schedule. All seven County Election Boards voluntarily requested an audit and received audit approval and designation from the Indiana Secretary of State’s Office. These audits ensure and affirm that the election equipment used in this election functioned properly, resulting in correctly reported election outcomes.
“There is no doubt, election integrity is top of mind across the country. The County Election Board has volunteered to complete a post-election audit to give voters additional confidence in the people, processes, and equipment used in Delaware County Elections. I am proud that VSTOP gets to work with the County’s Election Officials to provide this opportunity to them.”
– Matt Housley
The audit is open to all candidates, political parties, elected officials, media, and members of the public. Post-election audits are meant to be a transparent, and non-partisan external review of election equipment to increase voter confidence in the use of this equipment and the accurate results it delivers. We encourage members of the media to attend and report on audit activities to increase reach to members of our community.
