In response to "all vote-by-mail." by psilotum

I don't understand why that would slow down the counting.

All the ballots are received by election day, so why would it take longer to count than any other state?

Responses:

takes time to open them and you have to check that they are from registered voters (hopefully cross-checking they also didn't vote in person) -- nm - zork Nov 5, 22:50 1
- Yep. And Multnomah County is suffering staff shortages, the counting machines are breaking down, and there's an immense turnout. - ReluctantCynic Nov 6, 00:52
I don't know. Here in King County, they have a room full of new, faster ballot counting machines. - psilotum Nov 5, 22:48
