There are over 10,000 local election jurisdictions across the country. This is part of how we know the 2020 presidential election wasn’t 'rigged'. It would take a massive scheme to pull off such a felonious heist across multiple states. DemocracyDay
found in December 2021 that fewer than 475 potential voter fraud cases existed in six battleground states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.It’s a myth that mail ballots are only counted if an election is close. In fact, they are often counted first, usually once the polls close.
In every election cycle, some voters send back a ballot that is torn, stained by spilled food or drinks, or has stray marks. All these mishaps damage a ballot so it can’t be fed into a scanner, so election officials often work in bipartisan teams to duplicate the ballot.Local election officials take multiple steps to make sure results are reported accurately, as required by state laws.
Tabulated results are stored in three spots: a storage drive in the machines, on a results tape printed from the machine and on paper ballots. Before the county certifies the official results, officials compare results to make sure they match. Tammy Patrick, a former Maricopa County election official and expert on elections at the Democracy Fund, said the steps Hillsborough takes are representative nationally, although not all states require all these steps.
The initial leading candidate at any time on election night may not end up being the winner if the count is close and there are a lot of mail ballots. If that happens, it’s not a sign of fraud – it’s a sign of how the normal ballot-counting process works.
