Dear John,

Calls for sham reviews disguised as audits aren't going away – and neither are the threats these reviews pose. While true post-election audits provide justified confidence in our elections, sham reviews undermine legitimate election results, mislead the public, and ultimately leave our democracy less secure. But what exactly distinguishes a true audit from a sham review? To help voters spot the difference, Verified Voting has put together this handy guide:

([link removed]) :

Who is conducting the audit process?
🟢 True Audits: Election officials from the jurisdiction.
🔴 Sham Reviews: Unqualified, politically motivated actors.

Is the audit routine?
🟢 True Audits: Yes. Real audits usually happen right after an election.
🔴 Sham Reviews: No. Reviews can happen at any time.

Are the processes transparent?
🟢 True Audits: Yes!
🔴 Sham Reviews: No. Sham reviews are secretive.

Are the election systems kept secure?
🟢 True Audits: Yes. They follow documented processes.
🔴 Sham Reviews: No. Voting systems – and voters – can be exposed to vulnerabilities.

What are the audit methods?
🟢 True Audits: Procedurally and statistically sound. Find out more here ([link removed]) .
🔴 Sham Reviews: Who knows? Sham reviews are shrouded in secrecy.
