Original Note:
U.S. elections are largely decentralized, and each of the 50 states has its own rules. In many states, election officials are not allowed to count votes in advance. Time is needed to process and scan ballots with accuracy being prioritized above speed. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/10/us/elections/nevada-vote-count.html https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/why-does-it-take-so-long-count-mail-ballots-key-states-blame-legislatures
