A how-to video chronicling the Bucks County ballot counting process is making the rounds in the wake of a close presidential race.
In the video Larry King, Buck County spokesman, describes the ballot counting process and provides a revealing look into the offices where votes are counted.
“Piles of envelopes everywhere. No one checking postmarks or even if the ballot is official. Stuffed into a machine to verify God-knows-what then memory sticks sent to who knows,” Julie Kelly, a political commentator and senior contributor at American Greatness, said on social media. “This is gonna get ugly.”
At one point in the video King notes the county sent out around 200,000 absentee ballots this year.
The ballots are shown stacked on the floor.
In Bucks County, Joe Biden won 200,006 votes to Donald Trump’s 183,611 votes. In 2016, Trump lost the county by only 2,700 votes.
In Pennsylvania, Biden leads by 48,997 votes.
Bucks County was one of three polling places that reported they were unable to count a combined 16,000 provisional ballots.
Absentee ballots have been noted as a point of vulnerability by researchers.
