For batch comparison audits only.
In order to conduct a batch comparison risk limiting audit, Arlo needs candidate vote totals for each batch.
Open a spreadsheet program and create a simple spreadsheet.
Column A labeled “Batch Name” is for your batch name - this must match the batch names in your ballot manifest
Additional columns should be labeled with the names of the target contest candidates or selections. Your audit administrator will provide this information to you.
Enter the data for your county or jurisdiction. When you're finished, take a second to ensure the total number of batches matches your number of batches in your ballot manifest and that the candidate totals are correct. Then save the file as a .csv file.
If auditing multiple contests, the candidate name headings must also include the contest name. Example - "House of Representatives - Jane Doe." Both names should match what was entered by the Audit Administrator during target contest setup.
