[font color="navy" size="3" face="times new roman"]On Friday afternoon, Secretary of State Alex Padilla reported that there were 2,423,607 uncounted ballots statewide. About two-thirds of those are vote-by-mail ballots, with three Southern California counties leading the way: Los Angeles, San Diego and Orange.

Reports from a number of the state's 58 counties haven't changed for a few days, so expect the figures to shift pretty noticeably by early next week.

And one other part of the process: This is the first year in which ballots that arrive up to three days late -- Friday would be the deadline -- can be counted. So the number of ballots on hand could also change.[/font]

1. So this is what would be expected with actual mail in and counting ballots.

Seems a little slow but counting all ballots (actually wanting ballots) is also unique.

2. I hope they count all 2.4 million!

3. I do too, and not by an optiscan voting machine.

They should be VIEWED, HANDLED, AND HAND-COUNTED by actual HUMAN BEINGS.
