its mind boggling how they're still doing this by hand, manually….there has to be a more efficient way than literally opening up every single envelopes smh…
What stops a counter to put a valid or not valid ballot in the opponent stack?
What stops a counter to put a valid candidate ballot in the cancelled ballot stack?
What stops a counter to put a not valid ballot in some candidate's valid ballots stack?
What is the name of the company counting the votes?
Simple fix, have our military who have security clearances count the ballot ðŸ¤â€
You act like that s***'s right!
Maybe a few cameras would help.
I think it’s time for a re-vote I don’t see a single watcher in there do you that’s the law
All mail in ballots need to be burned. FRAUD BALLOTS!
Dont see much room for observers to watch. Even worse, keeping a 6 foot social distance means the closest an observer can be to the counter in the center is some estimated 30-50 feet away.
So where in this place are those ballot checkers/watchers in this room? It looks like no observers but only counters there
Why hasn’t this job been outsourced to CHINA
A signature is a joke the official should have to sign off on every verification and a photo copy picture of the persons Id should be sent with the ballot scanned and saved as evidence
Come On Man,
The election was rigged in Biden’s favor.
Biden even admitted it! Corruption.

The ballots were destroyed before it there. They planned real crooked and smart if that is smart!!!!!
ABC is bad as NBC, MSNBC and the others.
I don’t know but that signature on the screen did not come close the only letter that looked the same was the first one
Lol can I just email my vote!
Looks more like auditions for http://www.crisiscast.com 🤨
Watermarked ballots. Democrats missed that in the game.
Only Democrats allowed in.
Just have the election over and everyone go vote at the polls . Wear your mask and your latex rubber suits and go out and vote
Shown was one person only shown checking ballots signatures and the same in other areas, I can’t believe one person could have done these task!
Never answered how the counting is done.
How do you know their ID is valid to vote?
Are these ballots gonna be thrown away after the election? They shouldn’t.
This is too much. Are all those people working unbiased? Such as are they non democrat and non republican? They have to be neutral. If they hired anyone to do it then I’m sure it’s biased.
We need a re-vote but going to the polls and vote. This is all not right. It’s never been done and it should have never happened.
Thanks democracy for creating these unnecessary jobs
It’s all over the world watch this documentary called the Social Experiment!!! Media lies it’s facts watch this documentary on Netflix
How fucking incompetent do you have to be to not be able to sign your damn ballot or copy the same signature as on your driver's license? honestly, I guess it's a good thing because it weeds out people who are so incompetent that they probably shouldn't have had the right and responsibility to go out and vote.
The manual verification of signature must have been time consuming. What if voters attach their thumbprint instead and let a machine read it?
Philly has received over 430,000 mail-in ballots……so how are they counting so many ballots?
CBS takes us inside showing ballot counters and how the signatures are verified.
STOP at minute 1:16 look at the last name the way it is spelt the signatures don't match in my opinion. One is spelt with an "R" the other with a "B" and so forth. In this case, it could be a "GOP" or "DEM" vote we don't know.
But let's move along to verification of postmarks….it seems to me they're opening the ballots but not looking at the dates, but I could be wrong! Here I'm going to ask you to look at a postmark "date" on a piece of mail you may have…….you know that tiny number in the upper right corner, heck its tuff to see right? Did you see it and if so how close did you have to look?
Note in all fairness this video was made 11 / 03 as such the date on the envelope is not critical at that time. However knowing they are still counting and a procedure has been established, old habits die hard once ingrained.
So what's my take away of this News story as to how we handle ballots?
Antiquated, lacks checks and balances on both sides of the Party line, room for error and we need to update our system.
Check this at 64 seconds in.. Obviously different signatures – https://youtu.be/bDtPAiDhE48?t=64

That was a forged signature right there ….. Ha ha ha
why dead people always vote for democrats?
if AI can read fingerprints…retinal scans…facial recognition….dna….why cant AI scan signatures…not real live humans….
The signature didn't match!
How come we dont see both parties observing the process in person?
Perhaps you guys aren't letting the Republicans in to physically see over the process.
Trumps gonna prove people in upper office committed fraud and they will be persecuted. Trump will win.
Ha! Ha! Ha! CNN and all you other Fake News
Trump will still win. Trumps a servant of God. Some prophets say this election is going to catch all those leading up to office get caught up in the mail in ballots fraud and is going to be persecuted. Trust me I believe in what God tells his servants. These demons are going to get caught.
Trump is a servant of God. In the Bible God uses evil Kings to do his work for him. Every King who had a prophet that told them what God wants them to know and the King obeyed they won every war. Trump believes and prays to our Lord Jesus Christ. So of course he will win.
Reports out of Michigan say that the counting machines WERE ILLEGALLY CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET!
This isn’t counting this is vote manufacturing by Biden
Shouldn't there be two people counting, one from each party?
The Constitution is very explicit. The "Election" is to be held on Tuesday, and that's it. Voting is part of the Election. Voting by Mail itself is Unconstitutional. You don't fill out your ballot and cast your vote a week before, or a day after. You are supposed to go to an official polling station and vote ON THAT DAY. There are no Constitutional exceptions. All States that have been sending out ballots and people voting early, is illegal, and all those votes are Null and Void.///
Where are the observers for both sides who are suppose to be watching??????
Michigan counted hundreds of thousands in a couple hours. I doubt one person could check all the signatures in a year
WATERMARKED BALLOTS. Dems are FUUUUUUCKED.
This is all so weird. We had the drama of the pandemic and then somewhat forgotten and replaced with the Racism Drama that has been shoved under the rug and then resurface. And then back to worrying about the pandemic agian and then now this drama of more then 3 day ballots count. Is this to make voting look more interesring or making it dramatic. I don't get it. And can they get more help to help count. And also want to say thank you to all who are helping to count ðŸ‘Â
Oh so your not suppose to write on them like that guy was In Pennsylvania
Lmao that signature that came up on the screen didn't even match
All the vote counters are Biden voters. Majority of american born americans vote republican. These do not look like american born americans. Problem?
a mail in ballot doesn't circumvent registering to vote at your new address.
How do they know if some people counting the ballots are being honest? It would only take a small group of say "blm" supporters, to help cheat?
