Fulton County
“So far we’ve scanned 113,130 ballots, we’ve adjudicated 106,000, those have been published on the site, so those results are already posted
we are, like you been seeing all day, opening ballots. We open them on these machines, then they go over to where they are flattened, then they go over to the scanners.
It’s a time consuming process, once they get to the scanner we send them over to English Street, there’s a vote review panel over there and we’re adjudicating them from there.
The only ballots that are adjudicated are if we have a ballot with a contest on it with some question as to how the computer reads it. So the vote review panel then determines voter intent. We’re trying to make sure every ballot is counted and we expect to be here, we’re bringing in some more fresh people, because we’ve had these people here all day. We expect this to go until midnight or more.”
Q: How many absentee ballots were cast in this county for this election?
[1:36]”We have somewhere near 142,000 that we will be at the end of the process. We’ve scanned 113,130 as of moments ago. We’ve adjudicated 106,000 plus of those. The 106,000 those have already been published on the website. We’re gonna run more frequent batch updates over to English Street so we can get the vote review panel to update those, to go through those, adjudicate those so we can get more updates throughout the night”.
[2.23] “Essentially right now we’ve got 5 scanners, because we’ve only got 5 open too, so we can’t, even if we brought more scanners, it’s not going to help at this point.What we would need is more space and to get more space I’d have to ask everyone that’s here to leave so we could get more tables in here.”
[2.48] “We’re gonna do all…we’re gonna finish tonight…yeah, as long as it takes we’re gonna be here. That’s why we’re bringing in fresh bodies”.
Q: number of ?? votes
[3.03] “Well we’ll get to the total which is around above 142,000. We’ve already scanned in 113,130. What takes the most time is getting them off…cos the cutters and extractors it has to cut through 2 envelopes, so you run through it twice. Then it goes over to the flatteners and that is a manual process over there”.
Q:?
[3.35] “Well right now we’re up to 106,000 up from 74,000 yesterday we’re up to 106,000 it’ll be somewhere near the neighbourhood of 142,000”
Q: do all of them have to go through that process
[3.59] “No, well no, but you can’t publish a batch until that batch goes through adjudication. What it does, any ballots that are flagged to be adjudicated by the vote review panel, those have to be dealt with before you can publish that batch. So the vote review will go through and see any contest that’s on a ballot that has some question as to the way it was marked, the vote review panel then decides voter intent”.
[4.38] “None of the ballots get rejected, all that happens is if, you can make it…if there’s a determination on a contest on a ballot, whether the person intended to vote for this person or this person. So there aren’t any rejections. If a ballot is rejected, it’s done before you get to this process for either missing signature or signature mismatch. So once it goes through the scanner it’s gonna count the ballot. It’s just that there may be a question on one race or contest on that ballot”.
Q: So what’s the hold up then?
[5.16] “It’s mostly the space, I mean we don’t have, at this point we might bring in some more tables and get some letter openers and try to start opening by hand to supplement what we have with those (gestures to letter opening machine behind)”.
Q: something about 30,00 more votes than on the register…?
[5.45] “Yeah, sometime it’ll be after midnight by the time we get em through adjudication”.
Q: Any other votes cast in this election, either in person or in any other way that are left to be counted…
[5.59] “Well yea, any (UACAMA??) ballots the military overseas ballots, they have until Friday to come in and then any provisional ballots”.
Q: estimate on how many there are?
[6.12] “I don’t know, it just depends on, I don’t know how many of the (ULCAMA ??) are actually gonna come in.And as far as the provisionals, I don’t have a provisionals number, I’ll have to see if I can get that provided to Regina if I can get that provisional number and she can disseminate that to you”.
Q:In your experience what amount is provisional expected to be?
[6.45] “Provisional ballots? I know it’s in the 1200 to 3000 range, I just don’t know the exact number”.
Woman “we gotta get him back to work so we can finish up tonight and if you need any updates just let me know and I’ll get them to you. ok?”
