A Pleasure!
There’s something strange about this. They had completed all 8 days of the early vote ballots, over 20,000!.
They had spent the last two hours counting the 306 uncounted ballots that showed up mysteriously in Gertrude Walker’s office. That’s all they had left to do! I don’t get it. On Election Night they were there until well past midnight. What was the rush tonight to shut the place down and stop the count?
West was winning?
“What was the rush tonight to shut the place down and stop the count?”
Nothing good comes to mind.
The vote counters probably were over worked and needed a break. If they are gov’t workers, they are not used to working hard or long. Ask me, I was one for 1/3 of my working years.
Pretty sure they are write-in ballots. They are handled differently.
