County clerk to test accuracy of electronic devices used to
verify signatures on mail ballots; daily audit required during processing of
mail ballots.  If a county clerk
uses an electronic device in an election to verify signatures on mail ballots:

1.  The county clerk must conduct a test of
the accuracy of the electronic device before the election. The test must be
conducted in a manner that ensures the electronic device will use the same
standards for determining the validity of a signature as would be used by a
natural person verifying the signature pursuant to NRS 293.269927. 

2.  The county clerk must perform daily
audits of each electronic device during the processing of mail ballots for the
election. The daily audit must include a review of a sample of at least 1
percent of the signatures verified each day. The county clerk shall appoint
election board officers who must not all be of the same political party to manually
review the signatures. The county clerk must prepare a report of each daily
audit.
