They are going to have to hand count hundreds of ballots. In most districts, there were about fifty to ninety names on the delegate list and sometimes as many as forty on the alternate list. Each voter marked up to fifteen names with a pen. The counters will have to look at each ballot, ensure that the voter didn't mark more than fifteen names, and then count write down one vote for each delegate candidate who received a vote. The process is going to be tedious, and the counters are likely still counting. Furthermore, some districts voted in more than one location, and the ballots from outlying locations will be transported elsewhere for counting. We may not have results until tomorrow sometime.
For my eyewitness account of things in Baton Rouge, you can check post #44.

Thanks for the report, Bill.
A bit more complicated of a process in LA than in most caucus states, it seems.
