There's just a ton of stuff going on.

A bunch, obviously as you would expect, a week and a day before an election, and know two or three months before we get the results

God help us what the hell is wrong with. Seriously put it counting we could all do it in one day and count it in one day and now they're like,

well it might take up to a week to get certain results and we can't count.

I love the excuses, we can't count the early vote until the polls close.

Okay, fine, that's fine.

But so what?

You didn't have a rolling count before. You didn't. You didn't. It's not like you

sit there and you kind of one, lick your fingers like two lick your

it's a machine you feed it through it's a scantron machine you feed it through two

times three times go okay these numbers match up or they're close whatever these

are the results.

That's it. It's not that hard. Somehow we manage to do it all.

Well, we can't count these votes until the polls close.

So what? Count? The machine counts them. So unless there's a problem

the machine counts unless it's exceedingly close the machine counts them.
