I'm opposed to actually counting the votes early, as the count will inevitably leak out. I wouldn't be opposed to preparing the ballots to be scanned- opening, unfolding, etc. But that would also involve additional security measures. Right now the ballots are kept unopened in sealed cases.

Most places secure in locked ballot boxes. This was the actual occurance of votes secure and rhen removed; that trumpers used as evidence to acuse illegal stuffed ballots

Does it in other states that do this?

It’s only done in like 10 states, but the likelihood of a leak will go up if more states start counting early.

I’d rather see investing in technology to process ballots more quickly.

The time is gettig them out of envelopes and ready for scanner. Tech cant get much faster.

Which is why I said earlier I would not be opposed to opening and unfolding the ballots in advance.

Or building the technologies to prepare the ballots for scanning.

Oart of the prep is validation and scanner tech is pretty much maxed out. Usually the faster you the more jams u get you reach a sweet spot for speed / accuracy.
