I'm in no way defending this Clerk, and the rest of WI shows that the state's procedures work fine everywhere else. However, what I have seen is that the pressure to have a winner on election night during the initial news coverage leads to errors. Federal law requires a review of provisional and absentee ballots that typically takes up to three weeks. There are other cross checks that a well run election office will also use to certify results. In a close race all that can matter, and the public and media will have to show patience if they want elections with trustworthy results.
