Original Note:
A record number of AZ voters dropped off early ballots at polling places on election day, as opposed to mailing them in before (or waiting in line to vote). There were 290,000 such ballots this year, up 70% from 2020. These all require signature verification, a slow process. https://www.azmirror.com/2022/11/10/why-arizonas-ballot-count-takes-longer-than-floridas/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/11/12/arizona-election-vote-count-maricopa-county/
