CT SB01232

Requires registrars of voters to conduct risk-limiting audits of state elections between 15 days after the election and 2 business days before the official canvass, with a maximum 5% risk limit and results forwarded to UConn for analysis

Mandates audits cover presidential electors (if applicable), all state offices, at least one randomly selected Congressional seat, and at least 5% of state senator/representative races

Requires election officials to create ballot manifests within 72 hours of polls closing by manually verifying the number of ballots cast at each polling place and central counting location

Establishes that an "INCONCLUSIVE" audit outcome triggers a mandatory manual recount of all ballots for that office, and voting tabulators found to have recording failures must be examined and recertified

Creates a 2025 pilot program requiring the Secretary of State to randomly select three municipalities of varying population sizes to conduct risk-limiting audits at municipal elections
