Opening of Absentee Ballots POSTPONED

We were expecting to witness and possibly Challenge the opening of the Absentee Ballots today, 8/23/2024, but this event by the Sussex Department of Election has been postponed. It is not completely clear why this is, but it is presumed that some legal procedure of Ballot processing has not been followed and is now being corrected. Now this event will occur on Tuesday, 8/27/2024, 10am, at the DOE Office in Georgetown. If you are able to participate please email here info@38thdrcp.com.


Preparation and Scanning of Absentee Ballots for the 2024 Primary Election

This Tuesday, at the DOE in Georgetown, at 10am our team will be present to witness the opening of the 2024 Primary Election Absentee Ballots that have been received by the DOE so far.


We will witness: the opening of the Absentee Ballot envelopes, organizing them into RD-ED piles, feeding them into the DS450 scanner and tabulator, and then packaging and storing of the ballots. These Absentee Ballots votes are not counted, votes per candidate, but are rather scanned in and prepared for the actual counting on Election Day. In addition, for any Absentee Ballot where it is not clear for which candidate the intended vote was cast, we will observe two DOE staff, one from each party, determine to the best of their ability, which candidate was the intended vote for, and then scanned in with the rest of the Absentee Ballots and stored to be counted later on Election Day. As per the DOE staff today, this process does not usually have other witnesses present other themselves, though it has always been open to the public to observe. This time, they will have observers!


It is also at this point, that the Challengers, could challenge any of the Absentee ballots cast for legitimacy, as needed. IMO, how best to handle this would be to poll all of the voters who have cast an Absentee Ballot and ask them if they did in fact cast an Absentee Ballot. If any said they did not, then the Challengers would challenge that ballot. Is this too hard to do? Not in my opinion. This information, which voters have cast a vote by Absentee, is posted regularly by the DOE, and a team of dedicated callers could call these voters in their district to confirm that they did in fact cast an absentee vote. But this takes planning and manpower, but it could be done. If you would like to participate in this effort, please email here info@38thdrcp.com and we will get it done.
