Dear Speaker Moore and Senator Berger,

The North Carolina Constitution gives exclusive control of our electoral process to your branch of government. While you have delegated much of that authority to a state agency controlled by the Governor, the courts have regularly affirmed that state legislatures hold the ultimate authority.
Among those delegated duties, you've endowed the NC State Board of Elections with the work of investigating electoral irregularities. Just as Wall Street firms would have a conflict when investigating securities fraud, election administrators have a similar credibility problem.
As you know, state law currently requires only a random audit of the most recent Presidential election, so nobody is auditing any of the down-ballot races. Add to this weakness, the very real concerns over tabulation machine fraud and the Chinese components within the vast majority of election equipment currently used all across North Carolina. Is it any wonder that a growing number of voters have doubts about the integrity of our most recent general election?
While that's bad news, YOU and you alone have the authority to change this spiraling public trust of our most sacred civic duty. And since this is an oversight function, you do not need the Governor's permission to reassert your constitutional authority.
So, before you blindly enact more laws to "solve" the problems from 2020, we demand that you conduct a top-to-bottom audit of our elections before the end of this year's "long" session. At a minimum, this audit should include these actions:
1) Conduct a bipartisan, hand-eye, public recount of every contest on the ballot in three counties for each of the three tabulation machines certified for use in the 2020 general election (for a total of nine audits);
2) Any result discrepancies between the machine and the hand-eye recount > 0.01% will trigger at least two independent forensic audit teams to determine the root cause.
3) Hold hearings that investigate the ownership and the component origins of all ES&S machinery certified for use in NC.
4) Conduct a bipartisan signature analysis of all absentee ballot envelopes compared with voter registration signatures in the seven counties casting the most absentee by-mail votes and in all nursing homes that refused the help of a Multi-partisan Assistance Team during the 2020 general election.
5) Obtain a full accounting of all state, federal, and private funds received and spent by the NCSBE during 2020 and of all electoral fraud complaints that have been referred for prosecution since 2014.
