Precisely why mail-in ballots cannot be allowed to dominate an election anymore.
Also, wouldn’t this, in a sane society, require the entire state to conduct a manual recount to see if folds were missed in other jurisdictions?
Also you’ll find that different precincts probably treated such ballots differently (counted, cured, rejected).

Yes, you would think so. However, here in NH there are different ballot counting machines depending on the town you live in. Windham used one kind of machine. My town in NH uses another machine. The cities of Manchester, Portsmouth, Nashua and Concord use Dominion counting machines.
So, yes the State Legislature should consider an audit of the towns with this type of machine. Whether this happens or not, only time will tell.
