Could you please clear something up for me?

It involves the 300+ provisional ballots that were counted despite their not having been verified for elligibility.

Do the counties have the empty envelopes that supposedly went with those improperly tallied ballots? If they DO, then the counties would have at least been able to do after-the-fact verification. In that case, do you know what % of them were eventually verified as legitimate voters?

But, if they DO NOT have the empty provisional envelopes, then there is no possible way to determine the elligibility of those ballots. They will have bypassed the verification process that was required of all other voters.

Could the second scenario form a basis for claiming all voters were not treated equally?

I spoke with King official Bobbie Egan on this. They say they have been able to verify 252 of the 348 as valid voters. That appears to be as many as they could do; they said they were not attempting further reconciliation at this time.

So they validated about 75%, compared to an overall validation rate of around 87% countywide.
