    Significant delay combined with the party that insists elections are supposed to be over at midnight. Seems like an obvious recipe to count certain votes first and then whoops out of time.

      Exactly. Low-population areas are Republican-leaning and will get counted fast. Cities which are Democratic-leaning won’t have the staff to count it in one night.

        Lots of places have rules about how many polling stations per county. It’s designed to create lines to vote in cities and no lines in rural areas.

          How is this not shut down as obvious voter suppression. What other reason could there be for doing this? How do they justify it?

            They don’t justify it, they just do it. Same with gerrymandering.

            It’s not a bug; it’s a feature.

      That same party already made it much more onerous for people of color to vote in Georgia which will mean fewer votes to count as well
