- Voting machines must pass federal and state certification standards to be deployed and are tested before voters cast their ballots to make sure they are working properly.
- Additionally, while voting machines are highly accurate in counting votes, widely used paper ballots allow those machine counts to be checked and audited by people.
- Forty-nine states performed a post-election audit of some kind, including Pennsylvania, which found just 24 discrepancies among the 201,715 total votes officials reviewed in 2023. That's about 1/100 of 1% of all ballots audited.
- According to the Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council and others, "All of the states with close results in the 2020 presidential race" had paper records of each vote.
