It's Chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, and I'm Stephen Richard, the Maricopa County Recorder.

And again, the board and the recorder run elections here in Maricopa County as a team.

And we're very excited about how things are going today on Election Day.

We had all 223 vote centers have opened.

We've already had over 45,000 people who have checked in and already voted today.

We did want to come out and discuss one issue that's going on out there in about 20% of the vote centers.

Again, we have 223 vote centers across the county.

In about 20% of those, when people will go and they try and run the ballot through this tabulator,

maybe one out of every five or so of those ballots, they're not going through.

But this is something we've prepared for.

We have a redundancy.

The ballot will not go through this tabulator.

And by the way, those ballots that go through this tabulator, they go back here in the machine.

If their ballots not going through the tabulator, then we will ask them to go here at door number three

and place their ballot into this secure box.

Those ballots will remain secure in their all day long.

And at the end of voting after 7 p.m. when everything is completed,

then these ballots will be taken out securely and delivered by a bipartisan team, so Republican and Democrat,

down to here at the Central Tabulation Center where they will be tabulated.

You're in Arizona.

We're going to talk about drops later in the show.

But I think you have a, do you have a, a, a guest for us?
