Abstract: Free and fair elections are the foundation of a self-governing republic. Malfeasance is always a possibility, and proper security measures are of paramount importance.1 A number of statisti- cal tools developed in a growing sub eld of political science—known as election forensics—can be used to detect potential anomalies in election data. This Issue Brief provides a survey of some such tools as well as policy recommendations to help to enable the public to better leverage these and other tools.
