On election night: Why have some counties reported precincts and vote totals, while other counties have not reported any results?
Each of the 58 county elections offices processes its ballots differently. County elections officials are required to send their initial results to the Secretary of State’s office no more than two hours after they begin tallying the votes after polls close at 8:00 p.m. on Election Day. County elections officials continue to report results periodically until all precinct vote totals have been reported.
