22. Canada, O Canada!
Our friendly (almost) neighbor to the north had almost 14 million ballots cast in a national election, all on paper ballots, and all were counted within four hours after the election.

Do the math.

Who says that we must have results from all 50+ states before the 11 o'clock news that night?

What incredible incompetence - a country that is approaching close to 300 million people still spends just one day for national elections!
