ONGIE CITY CLERK 83-1015 Delq*je Haskins Sells Cert!hed Publpc Accountants 0 r Honorable Mayor and Members of the Cite Commission of the City of Miami, Florida 0, IS T�, ;n,,,• F .i3�1?1 Novemhe r 10, 1963 We have performed the procedures requested by you, as described below, with respect to the City of Miami Primary and General Elections held on November 8, and November 15, 1983. This report is solely for your information in determining, with reasonable assurance, that the ballots processed by Alpha Ballot -Tab System (the "System") were counted accurately. The procedures we performed and our findings are summarized as follows: 1. On October 25, 19g3, we met with Dade County Elections Department officials and personnel to obtain an overall understanding of the automated portion of the election process. During this meeting we: .. obtained documentation relating to election night processing; .. received a demonstration of the System processing test ballots. 2. Obtained and read the "Compilation of the Election Laws" of the State of Florida for further understanding of the election process. 3. Contacted the State of Florida, Division of Elections, to determine that the System had been reviewed by the Florida Department of Elections and approved for use in the State. We were informed that the System nad been reviewed and approved. 4. Contacted personnel at Computer Election Systems (CES), Berkeley, California, the System vendor, and performed the following procedures: U3-1015 IF Honorable Mavor and Members of the City Commission of the City of Miami, Florida November 16, 1983 Z .. we reviewed a copy of the System documentation to obtain an understanding of the manner in which ballots are processed; .. one of our consultants from our San Francisco office met with CES personnel and their subcontracted programmers to perform a general review of the Svstem source code. 5. We utilized our audit software, AUDITAPE and manual procedures, to perform independent tests of the System. These tests were performed at an independent computer service bureau and included processing of several hundred test ballots within two test precincts. The test ballots were comprised of: .. a group of test ballots containing various mathematical combinations of valid votes; .. the test ballots to be utilized during the Logic and Accuracy (L&A) procedures to be performed by the Dade County Elections Department immediately preceding and following the actual ballot processing on each election night; .. a group of test ballots containing various combinations of over and under votes to test how the System processes multiple votes or the absence of votes in a particular group; .. a group of test ballots with votes cast in (card) positions where there were no candidates indicated. 6. We processed the test ballots described in procedure 5 above through the System, compared the results as determined by our independent test, and found them to be in agreement. 7. On Monday, November 7, 1983, we: .. observed the L£,A test performed by Dade County Elections Department personnel, compared the results to the results determined in procedure 5 and found them to be in agreement; U3-1015 Honorable Mavor and Members of the City Commission of the City of Miami, Florida November 16, 1983 3 .. entered our independently prepared test transactions, compared the results to the results determined in procedure 5 and found them to be in agreement; .. observed the securing of testing materials including reports, test ballots, header cards, etc., and determined that such items were appropriately secured and given to the City Clerk for safekeeping. 8. On ?Monday, November 14, 1983, we: .. observed the L£,A test performed by Dade Count) - Elections Department personnel, verified the results and did not note any exceptions. .. observed the securing of testing materials including reports, test ballots, header cards, etc., and determined that such items were appropriately secured and given to the City Clerk for safekeeping. 9. On Tuesday, November 8 and 15, 1983, we: .. submitted our independent test data described in procedure 5 and found that the results were in agreement with our predetermined results; .. observed the precount LtA test of both systems 1 and 2 that were utilized to process the ballots and found that the test results were in agreement with the results obtained in procedure 7; .. observed the operation of the computer equipment during the actual election process and did not observe any unauthorized intervention into the election process; .. observed the post -count L£,A test and resubmitted our independent test data described in procedure 5 and found that the results were in agreement with our predetermined results. Based upon the procedures and findings described above, we believe that the System, and related control procedures, provides reasonable assurance that ballots processed by the System were accurately counted. Our procedures were limited to those described above, and were directed toward the computer processing of the election ballots and did not constitute a review or examination of the procedures for the handling and controlling of the ballots prior to entering U4s-1©15 Honorable Mayor and !Members of the City Commission of the City of ;Miami, Florida November 10, 1983 4 into the System, manual balancing procedures, the manual processing of mutilated ballots and absentee ballots, and the official reporting of election results. We are pleased to have been of service to the City of Miami and would also like to acknowledge the fine cooperation we received from your personnel and of the Dade County Department of Elections.
