The math isn't adding up in Seminole County, Florida with ballot counting.

First, the county followed its own rules with absentee ballots and began counting days after the expected date for Florida. They were expected to start counting on the 19th, but didn't start until the 21st.

Then the Supervisor of Elections claimed they could count 22,000 ballots every six hours. If so, they should have counted mine by now. I dropped mine off on the 13th.

If anyone has a link that shows ballot counts per day for the county, please let me know.

I drop into it three times a day. My information shows that it still hasn't been counted. The counted option is shaded gray, not blue.

a few days ago, and the counted box is still shaded here in PBC. I bet they don’t want to release the detailed info you seek. Right now, I’m just glad it’s in the system and not lost in the mail.

It's never good when this county has too much time on its hands. There is a very strong backwater culture. It's like having to answer to two different governments. If they can find a way to steal a vote, I'm convinced they will. If they were really concerned about being efficient, I don't think there would be a reason for this delay.
