** Report Ballot Box Receipts **

[dannno]

The machine count was at minimum 669 based on two of my roommate's witness testimony, but of course it was probably a bit more (they went a little before closing). Not sure why it only says 159 ballots cast. The only thing that I can think of is that it was counting down from 800.

I voted absentee, but I don't think these results include the absentee votes. I imagine a lot of Republicans voted absentee.

Will we be able to check on this eventually?

I don't quite get it - where is this receipt from?

They post it in the window of the polling place after they close. I went and got some pictures.

How very interesting that he got the most Repub votes according to that receipt, but bombed in every single county..

Well, I think absentee should have a lot to do with that...but does anybody know why the machine might have been counting in the high 600s and only have 159 ballots cast on the receipt??

Perhaps this is a receipt for only a single machine? If there were four voting machines, it would seem reasonable that the total count would be over 600, and each machine would have about 150.

Race #10 Party: Dem
* John Edwards: 3
* Hillary Clinton: 47
* Barack Obama: 83

Race #40 Party: Rep:
* Mike Huckabee: 1
* Rudy Giuliani: 1
* Ron Paul: 5
* John McCain: 3
* Mitt Romney: 3

3 + 47 + 83 + 1 + 1 + 5 + 3 + 3 = 146.

Presumably 13 votes were cast for other parties. There's a "race #1003" in the bottom of the image that suggests there were more votes listed that you didn't get in the picture.
