Reporting of vote totals by precinct; voting data maintained by
precinct.
A. The county clerk shall report to the secretary of state the vote totals in each precinct on
election night.
B. The county clerk shall maintain voting data by precinct that includes the number of voters
who voted early in-person, absentee by mail and on election day and the number of voters who
voted using each type of voting system. The county clerk shall report this data to the secretary
of state within sixty days following the election, and to no other person. The secretary of state
