Milwaukee, USA, will recount 30,000 absentee ballots

The Golden Finance reported that the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, will recount about 30,000 absentee ballots because it was found that the door of the ballot counting machine was not completely closed. A city government spokesman said that in order to ensure accuracy, after discussions with election officials and lawyers, it was decided to rerun the ballots. All counting machines will be reset, and the ballots will be re-entered into the machines, which may add a few hours to the counting time, but the handling of the ballots and envelopes does not need to be redone. The issue was caused by human error, and no tampering behavior was found. Officials emphasized that the recount is aimed at ensuring the accuracy of the election results.
