Dozens of boxes filled with mail-in ballots are still sitting inside a Miami-area mail distribution center, according to photos obtained by The Miami New Times.
The news outlet noted that the distribution center where the ballots are located is the same one that was evacuated in October after a mail bomb reached the facility.
The news about the ballots comes the same day Miami-Dade County announced it finished counting votes for the midterm elections, which includes hotly-contested Senate and gubernatorial races that have yet to be called.
Two unnamed sources alleged to The New Times that hundreds or thousands of ballots may still be in the distribution center.

They better damn well be counted.

Like say, 2000 when Al should have been president.
This nonsense has to stop.

We need election reform badly, maybe U.N. observers.

(7,656 posts)ballots can disappear. Best security is to have paper ballots, hand counted AT THE PRECINCT level with public oversight ON ELECTION DAY. Then post the tallies at the precinct before the ballots leave the premises.
No long lines or electricity required to vote with this method. Also, voter check in should be from lists printed on paper rather than on a computer.
