What is the role of
a State Auditor?
The Auditor is the state’s chief accountability officer. Her role is to make sure our state government runs better while also ensuring that there is transparency and accountability in the decision-making process of how tax dollars are spent, and policies are made. The Auditor’s Office performs audits that track the performance of state vendors, agencies and departments that can streamline work, save taxpayer money, and identify misspending.
