November 08, 2006 Why does counting take so long?  I am curious,
maybe someone knows the answer.  How is it that Snohomish County
can count 94,000+ ballots on election day and only about 6,000
ballots on the following day?  I noticed this during the primary

could only seem to count 8-10,000 ballots a day after election
day.  Anyone know why there is such a drop off? It could be that
they count the ballots before election day, but I thought that
wasn't allowed under state law.  Posted by SouthernRoots at
