Election Audits Planned for Swing States

Citizens Oversight, a nonprofit organization, is initiating ballot image audits in key swing states where Donald Trump won but down-ballot Republicans lost, including Nevada, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. The initiative is driven by concerns over election integrity, particularly following reports of vulnerabilities within voting systems, such as a 'back door' in Dominion's election management system. Meanwhile, discussions are ongoing in Arizona to encourage cross-party dialogue about the upcoming 2024 election. In Ghana, voters face issues of vote-buying and the integrity of the voters' register as they prepare for presidential elections, which are expected to be highly competitive. Lastly, a volunteer analytics group has been analyzing Arizona’s election data to ensure transparency and accuracy in future elections, arguing that bureaucratic restrictions have hindered public access to crucial information.
