The task for Lansing City Clerk Chris Swope’s staff was to randomly select 165 ballots from the November election and send the results in for a statewide audit. The totals compiled will be matched against those produced by counting machines to verify the accuracy of President
Joe Biden’s win in Michigan.

Under a 2018 state law, the audit is done after the election is
certified. Swope says any error that might turn up will not impact the results. Other states that are doing these types of audits are doing it before certification, Swope explains, and if an error is found, they actually correct the results, and I think that’s the better way to do it.
