The Stevens County Auditor’s Office released a follow-up report on Tuesday after discovering an issue affecting automatic voter registration (AVR) notices in Stevens and Ferry Counties.

Following this discovery, Stevens County conducted an internal review. It was found that while AVR notices were being received at a limited rate of 1-3 per week, those from state agencies were not processed due to their absence from the task queue.
