it's mind-boggling. > option a: computers count everything, but take between 5 and 14 days for some reason > option b: people manually count paper ballots, but for some reason the 5 employees watching 5 polling booths can't tally as they go and finish right after the last person votes (with a second counting for verification taking no longer than the time it took people to vote). instead it takes them 2 weeks.  > addendum: mail-in ballots, which make ~50% of all votes, take 10x as long to count as normal ballots somehow.
