When feeding them into the machine I believe they would be time stamped!!!
Maybe, but when did the ballot arrive at the drop box, election center, etc.? "Scan time" doesn't equal "submitted time"...all mail in ballots is causing chaos...same problem with the supposed USPS "backdating" issue...if the ballot was in a USPS mail drop box at 6pm and not collected by USPS personnel until 9pm, then "backdating" would be considered "appropriate"....like what the USPS does with tax returns on April 15th...mailboxes emptied at midnight on or shortly after Midnight April 15/16...then those tax returns get postmarked April 15th.
