Election Procedure Review Request

An Election Procedure Review Request is a formal petition submitted by a candidate, political party, or group of voters to request an examination of the procedures and practices used in the conduct of an election. The request may be prompted by concerns about the fairness, accuracy, or transparency of the election process, or by a desire to identify potential areas for improvement. The review may focus on specific aspects of the election, such as voter registration, ballot design, polling place operations, or vote counting, or may encompass a more comprehensive assessment of the entire system. The request typically outlines the specific areas of concern and the desired scope of the review, and may include suggestions for potential reforms or best practices to consider. Election officials or other responsible authorities review the request and determine whether a review is warranted and feasible. Election Procedure Review Requests are an important tool for promoting public confidence in the integrity of elections and for identifying opportunities to modernize and strengthen the voting process.
