5. Our audits in NC cost very little, but we have regular folks do them. you have seen the report
Although our audits are not perfect, they take just a few hours (per county) after an election.
The cost is little, and some counties jack up the cost (because they hate audits) and some
make the cost very little (because they accept the mandate).


Regular folks, volunteers are recruited to perform the audits which are done in public by two separate teams who each recount a randomly selected precinct or in some cases an early voting site.

Wake Co audited an entire early voting site in 2008.
