MOHAVE COUNTY, AZ (July 25, 2023) – On June 5, 2023, the Board of Supervisors directed staff to review and develop a plan for tabulating the 2024 elections by hand. Between June 22, 2023, and June 26, 2023, the Mohave County Elections Department carried out a study to test the feasibility and best practices of carrying out a full hand tabulation of the 2024 elections.

The Mohave County Elections Department has now developed a plan for tabulating the 2024 elections by hand.  It will be presented at a special Board of Supervisors meeting on Tuesday, August 1, 2023 at 9am at the county Administration Building auditorium 700 W Beale St. in Kingman.  Elections Director Allen Tempert will deliver the report. A discussion and possible action will take place with a review of the proposed plan for hand tabulating the ballots for the 2024 elections, and supervisors may adopt, modify, or reject the proposed plan.

There will also be a presentation by Mohave County Recorder Kristi Blair about the Arizona Voter Information Database ( AVID), its role with voter registration within Mohave County and the State of Arizona and how it is different from the Electronic Registration Information Center ( ERIC).
