36. You're referring to paper forms run through optical scans.

The official ballot of record is the result, tabulated by electronic/computerized optical scan
readers.

Those paper forms are not available for review, period, unless the losing candidate requests it.

None of the candidates live in the state of NH.

Therefore, you've got a situation where non residents have more voting rights than residents.

This is absurd and a good explanation why 40% to 50% of eligible voters stay home. They see the
process and the results as total b.s.
