(2,350 posts)As absentee/mail-in ballots arrive, the local boards put them into scanning machines, but the results from those absentee ballots arent tabulated or reported until Election Day. But, the good thing is that since theyre already counted (or at least the majority will be), NC will likely be called that night.
Absentee ballot requests as of a couple of weeks ago were around 650k. About 330k were from Democrats. Only a third of that number were from Republicans.
My parents and I have ours already. We dont trust what DeJoy has done to the USPS 🤬. So, were waiting until we can turn them in at an early voting site next month, rather than hope that they dont get lost and then have to try to get a new one or vote in person with a provisional ballot.
