From K-QED.

Hey everyone, Olivia Alan Price here.

We spent early October going through all the California propositions here on Bay Curious,

and I really hope that our Propfest series helped you to vote with

confidence this past election day. Now Bicarious isn't always so much

about politics of course but this week it's pretty hard to ignore that a hugely consequential election just happened.

With ballots still being counted, we thought we'd answer some of your questions about what that process looks like.

Questions like, are ballots counted by machine or humans? If humans, is it Republicans or Democrats?

How sure are we there was no meddling with votes along the way?

When do they stop counting ballots?

What happens to ballots after they're counted?

Today I'm Bay Curious, California's journey from a pile of

ballots to results. Stick around. Support for Bay Curious is brought to you by

Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, still family owned, operated, and argued over.

Explore their brews wherever fine beverages are sold and taste how trailblazing runs in the family.

Here to answer all of our election process questions is Guy Marzorati. He's a reporter with

KQD's California Politics and Government Desk. Hey Guy. Hey Olivia. This has

been an election unlike any other for so many reasons but one of the big changes that we've seen is more

people voting by mail and a lot more people voting early and we're told that because

of this it might take a little bit longer to tally all of those ballots.

How are races already announced in some places if we know that not all the ballots have been counted?
