Yellow | YRC Vote Results Coming Soon!

Jeff must have good bandwith on this site. Never seen so many on here at one time. Good job. 844 at this time
 
January 8, 2014. 12:30 p.m. The ballots for the YRCW contract extension will be counted today and tomorrow. At the first postal pick up at 8 am, the post office count was 19,483 ballots. The final pick up at Noon brought about 150 more. The postal estimates are subject to correction when ballots are counted later.They are sorting the sealed ballot packets. They are not checking eligibility; but accepting all ballots mailed in as valid.We do not expect any results until late today or possibly even early tomorrow, as processing and sorting by local will take a long time. The count supervisor, Ed Hartfield, estimates that the count will be completed by Thursday afternoon.In the October 2010 YRCW concession vote, there were 23,000 ballots counted, but there were many more YRCW Teamsters at that time. The postal estimate today reflects about a 75% turnout.This site will be updated as information becomes available. Stay tuned. We will post results by local union here. - See more at: YRCW Contract Vote Count Today | Teamsters for a Democratic Union

Why are they not checking for eligibility and accepting all ballots as valid?

Just a guess.....the two piles are significantly different in height that the Count Supervisor made a judgment call that the few "ineligibles" will not effect the totals. They appear to be worried about getting a count published quickly??? :confused:
