Logic and Accuracy Voting Machine Testing

 

Cumberland County Board of Elections to Conduct Voting Machine Tests

The Cumberland County Board of Elections on Thursday, August 21, 2025, will conduct logic and accuracy (L&A) tests on voting systems that will be used in the 2025 Fayetteville City Primary. L&A testing ensures each voting system will correctly count and tabulate each ballot cast.
The 2025 Fayetteville City Primary will take place on Tuesday, October 7, 2025.
Before every election, county boards complete L&A testing to ensure proper coding of ballots and tabulation of votes for every contest.
Ballots of each style are coded for a mock election and run through the tabulator. The tests check the voting system’s ability to read each ballot style and the accuracy of the tabulator when counting votes. A bipartisan team oversees the preparation of the machines and ballots and conducts the tests.
After testing, election staff will reset the equipment to ensure no L&A test information remains on the system heading into the elections.
If you wish to witness the process, L&A tests are open to the public. The public may view the equipment preparation and testing, as long as they do not interfere with the process. Please note that seating is limited.

 
Time:      10:00 a.m.
Date:      Thursday, August 21, 2025
Location:  Cumberland County Board of Elections Office

 

 

 Voter Photo ID Requirement

 

Voters will be asked to show photo ID when voting in North Carolina.

Watch a short video to learn all about the new voter photo ID requirement here:

For most voters, they will simply show their driver’s license. But there are many other acceptable photo IDs. 

If a voter does not have an acceptable photo ID, they can get one for free from the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles (NCDMV). Find more information under “No-Fee ID Cards” at State IDs | NCDMV. Voters can also get free ID from their county board of elections.

All voters will be allowed to vote with or without a photo ID. If a voter cannot show photo ID when voting in person, they can still vote by filling out an ID Exception Form. For absentee-by-mail voters, if they are unable to include a copy of their photo ID in their ballot return envelope, they can also fill out an ID Exception Form with their ballot. Find more information at this link: ID Exceptions.

For more information, go to Voter ID on the State Board of Elections website.
