Text

(a) A voting system must be able to record
accurately each vote and be able to produce an accurate report of all
votes cast.
(b) As used in this subsection, "error rate" refers to the error rate of
the voting system in counting ballots (determined by taking into
account only those errors that are attributable to the voting system and
not attributable to an act of the voter). As required by 52 U.S.C. 21081,
a voting system must comply with the error rate standards established
under Principle 1, Guideline 1.2 of the Voluntary Voting System
Guidelines adopted by the United States Election Assistance
Commission on February 10, 2021.
(c) The inclusion of control logic and data processing methods
incorporating parity and check-sums (or equivalent error detection and
correction methods) must demonstrate that the system has been
designed for accuracy.
