How does BallotPoint handle recounts?
Like any other election process, there could be a call for a recount. After an election has been closed and the results tallied, the unions election officials may access the contents of the vote repository for the purposes of conducting a recount of the votes. The stored votes do not contain any information that would enable anyone to connect a voter with the contents of his or her vote. Additionally, when the results of the election are made final, every voter has the ability to confirm the specifics of his or her vote as they appear on the official tally sheet using their vote confirmation number (VCN). Only BallotPoint provides this level of assurance that every vote is counted and counted correctly.
