HI HB132

Establishes definitions for electronic voting systems, including "direct recording electronic voting system," "marksense ballot voting system," and "mechanical tabulation system."

Requires all electronic voting systems to involve a paper ballot or voter verifiable paper audit trail that can be inspected by voters.

Mandates post-election, pre-certification audits of at least 10 percent of precincts to verify that electronic voting system results match paper ballot or audit trail tallies, with expanded audits if discrepancies appear.

Specifies procedures for correcting misreporting in isolated devices, requiring use of mechanical tabulation systems for affected ballots or counting of voter verifiable paper audit trails for direct recording electronic voting systems.

Applies requirements to county-only elections held independently, with references to the chief election officer understood to mean the county clerk in such cases.
