cool arrow said:how are we STILL not counted/certified?
the rest of the whole f ucking country is done (minus NV). we are a mess.
Because state law requires that all mail in ballots be opened, and signatures verified against registration records. Millions of voters did so by mail in ballots. They are hand counted. That takes time. It's not difficult to understand.
Starting in 2026, early voters will have the option of showing their ID if they drop off their ballot early, and then they get to open the envelope and feed their ballot into the counting machine. This will allow the votes to be tabulated immediately.
Many states are not 100% counted, but many are showing above 95% counted. Most are states with total populations that are less than the population of Maricopa County.
