As Secretary of State Shirley Weber noted, "It takes time to ensure every ballot is counted, every ballot is accounted for and every voter only voted once." This highlights the importance of a thorough counting process to maintain electoral integrity, despite criticisms of delays.
Assemblymember Joe Patterson expressed concern that the lengthy delays in counting votes can sow distrust in the electoral system, emphasizing that extended wait times can undermine faith in democratic processes. He pointed out, "Just because it's been a problem doesn’t mean we should ignore the issues at hand."
