The resolution urges the legislative auditor to perform a comprehensive performance audit of the Louisiana Department of State's election policies, procedures, and practices to ensure the integrity and security of elections in the state. It highlights the importance of post-election audits, which are standard in many states, and emphasizes the need for Louisiana citizens to have confidence in the election process managed by various officials, including the secretary of state and local election officials.

Additionally, the resolution mandates that the performance audit should include a comparison of Louisiana's election practices with those of other states to identify best practices. It specifies that if sensitive data is requested during the audit, the Department of State must employ cryptography to safeguard that information. The audit is to be conducted every four years, coinciding with the presidential election cycle, and copies of the resolution will be sent to the state legislative auditor and the secretary of state.
