22. If they are anything like what we use in Minnesota, the ballots simply fall into the bottom bin

after being scanned. If you want, it is perfectly fine to stick around until after 8PM to witness the bin being unlocked and the ballots placed into boxes for transport back to city hall. The results are transmitted wirelessly, paper tape reports are printed and the USB memory device is placed in an envelope for transport. This year, they went to city hall in my car's trunk. If anyone wanted to follow me, I'd be fine with that. You can't go into city hall ( I think ) but you could watch me every step of the way as I drove them them back. You could drive into the Police Department garage to watch me take them from my trunk to the door 10 feet from where they are logged in. To cheat, one would have to hack the ballot counter and alter ballots in the boxes. The number of ballots is separately accounted for by multiple machine and human counts. No one person could alter the results.
