In some cases, votes in these close races have changed which candidate led. </p> <p>But the late addition of votes doesn’t signal anything nefarious. Election experts told us these are a normal part of the election, and they show the process is working. </p> <p>States have different rules for when officials can begin processing and counting mail-in ballots, and when ballots can be accepted, National Association of Election Officials Chief Programs Officer Tammy Patrick said. Voters in many states also have opportunities to fix errors in their ballots, and provisional ballots — which are cast when a person’s eligibility to vote is in question — need time to be verified and counted.</p> <p>Some states do not allow election officials to begin opening mail-in ballots to be counted until Election Day. Several states also accept absentee ballots that were postmarked by Election Day but arrived at the election office later. </p> <p>"It’s not evidence of fraud," said Jay Young, senior director of voting and democracy at Common Cause, a nonpartisan voting advocacy group. "In fact, it’s evidence that election administrators are doing their job and making sure that every vote is counted — every eligible vote is counted, and all the ineligible votes aren’t."</p> <p>Poll watchers from both parties and nonpartisan groups are also generally present when ballots are counted and certified, Young said, so late-counted ballots aren’t being tabulated in secret. </p> <p>Vote tallies are unofficial and subject to change until a state officially certifies its vote total. In <a href="https://www.eac.gov/election-officials/election-results-canvass-and-certification" target="_blank">most states</a>, the certification deadline is more than two weeks after the November election.</p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>Pennsylvania</strong></div> <p>The Instagram video pointed to late ballot additions in some Pennsylvania counties, where Senate candidate Republican Dave McCormick and incumbent Democrat Sen. Bob Casey are fighting over the <a href="https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/nov/19/elon-musk/no-democrat-bob-casey-is-not-asking-to-count-nonci/">eligibility of provisional ballots</a> and certain mail-in ballots. A state law-triggered recount in the U.S. Senate race is underway.</p> <p>Most of the votes in Pennsylvania were counted on election night, but in some large counties there were still thousands of absentee ballots that were counted after Election Day, and officials in every county had to adjudicate an estimated 60,000 provisional ballots. Provisional ballots require a hearing for county officials and campaigns to weigh in on whether they should be counted. </p> <p>One post focused on <a href="https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1857556186964668563" target="_blank">Bucks County</a>, where Republican President-elect Donald Trump’s narrow lead shrank as ballots were counted. Bucks County officials voted Nov. 11 to count <a href="https://www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/local/2024/11/14/david-mccormick-bob-casey-senate-bucks-county-lawsuit-ballot-count-2024-election/76293859007/" target="_blank">mail ballots without dates</a> on their outer envelopes.</p> <p>Another post highlighted a "5k ballot dump" from <a href="https://x.com/PollTracker2024/status/1857932862059688218" target="_blank">Montgomery County</a> that narrowed McCormick’s lead over Casey statewide. Montgomery County did add about 5,000 ballots to its count Nov. 16, according to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20241116164440/https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/11/05/us/elections/results-pennsylvania-president.html" target="_blank">archived</a> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20241116235208/https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/11/05/us/elections/results-pennsylvania-president.html" target="_blank">results</a> from The New York Times’ website, but the addition was not unexpected. </p> <p>Montgomery County Commissioner Neil Makhija <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6EKHZ6avvI" target="_blank">said Nov. 6</a> there were an estimated 10,000 ballots yet to be counted, including mail-in ballots, military and overseas ballots and provisional ballots.</p> <p>Some counties decided to count absentee ballots <a href="https://www.votebeat.org/pennsylvania/2024/11/18/ballot-dating-requirement-supreme-court-bucks-montgomery-philadelphia-counties/" target="_blank">that lacked proper dates</a> despite previous state Supreme Court guidance saying those ballots should not be counted. The Supreme Court ruled again on Nov. 18 that mail-in ballots without proper dates should not be counted, and ordered counties not to include them in their totals.</p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>California</strong></div> <p>A Democrat taking the lead in a razor-thin California U.S. House race is also not a sign of election fraud. The Instagram video’s creator pointed to an <a href="https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1857956282465988654" target="_blank">X post</a> that claimed "there is NO WAY" Democrat Derek Tran could have taken the lead in the 45th Congressional District race, calling California "corrupt." </p> <p>Tran led by 397 votes over incumbent Republican Michelle Steel as of midday Nov. 21, according to the <a href="https://electionresults.sos.ca.gov/returns/us-rep/district/45" target="_blank">California secretary of state’s office</a>. </p> <p>California has historically taken weeks to count ballots, so it’s unsurprising that ballots are being counted more than two weeks after Election Day. The state allows mailed absentee ballots that were postmarked by Election Day to be accepted up to seven days after the election, and it allows voters to correct or "cure" any errors on their ballots until two days before the election is certified Dec. 3. </p> <p>Steel <a href="https://www.calvoter.org/content/close-count-transparency-project" target="_blank">led by </a>10,000 votes in the 45th District on Nov. 6, but Tran took the lead on <a href="https://ocvote.gov/fileadmin/live/GEN2024/Run_19/cumulative.pdf" target="_blank">Nov. 16</a>, when Orange County counted 1,154 new ballots in the contest, with 54% of those votes going to Tran. <a href="https://www.lavote.gov/news-room/press-releases" target="_blank">Los Angeles</a> and <a href="https://ocvote.gov/results/whats-left-to-count/total-ballots-left-to-count" target="_blank">Orange</a> counties have provided regular updates about the ballots left to be counted in the race, so it’s clear where the ballots are coming from. </p> <p>"There are chain of custody records that demonstrate when these were picked up from the post office, when they were received by the elections office," Patrick said. "There’s chain of custody protocols that go through. And so it’s not the case that there’s anything new here, it’s just it takes a long time to process some of these after Election Day." </p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>North Carolina</strong></div> <p>Less than <a href="https://er.ncsbe.gov/?election_dt=11/05/2024&county_id=0&office=JUD&contest=1377" target="_blank">1,000 votes</a> separated the North Carolina Supreme Court candidates as of Nov. 21, and Republican candidate Jefferson Griffin <a href="https://archive.ph/Jkobl" target="_blank">requested a recount</a> Nov. 19. </p><div><html><body><section class="o-pick"> <header class="o-pick__header"> <h4 class="o-pick__title"> Featured Fact-check </h4> </header> <article class="o-pick__content"> <article class="m-statement m-statement--is-medium m-statement--false"> <div class="m-statement__author"> <div class="m-statement__avatar"> <div class="m-statement__image"> <div class="c-image" style="padding-top: 119.27710843373494%;"> <img class="c-image__thumb" height="99" src="https://static.politifact.com/CACHE/images/politifact/mugs/logo-black/4590875651af69b2c789ceab409664dd.jpg" width="83"/> <picture> <img class="c-image__original" height="99" src="https://static.politifact.com/CACHE/images/politifact/mugs/logo-black/72988380e8c8bd188dc360d11552e4a0.jpg" width="83"/> </picture> </div> </div> </div> <div class="m-statement__meta"> <a class="m-statement__name" href="/personalities/tweets/" title="X posts"> X posts </a> <div class="m-statement__desc"> stated on October 22, 2024 in posts on X </div> </div> </div> <div class="m-statement__content"> <div class="m-statement__body"> <div class="m-statement__quote-wrap"> <div class="m-statement__quote"> <a href="/factchecks/2024/oct/23/tweets/no-the-atlantic-did-not-publish-an-article-with-th/"> A photo shows The Atlantic published a story headlined “Trump is Literally Hitler.” </a> </div> </div> <div class="m-statement__meter"> <div class="c-image" style="padding-top: 89.49771689497716%;"> <img alt="true" class="c-image__thumb" height="196" src="https://static.politifact.com/CACHE/images/politifact/rulings/meter-false/33efdb6633e5e2fdc2d4e2f63383a1e0.jpg." width="219"/> <picture> <img alt="false" class="c-image__original" height="196" src="https://static.politifact.com/politifact/rulings/meter-false.jpg" width="219"/> </picture> </div> </div> <footer class="m-statement__footer"> By Madison Czopek • October 23, 2024 </footer> </div> </div> </article> </article> </section> </body></html></div> <p>Griffin led the count by about 10,000 votes shortly after the election, but the margin closed as additional ballots were counted the following week, and Democratic incumbent Allison Riggs now holds a narrow lead. </p> <p>The Instagram video featured an <a href="https://x.com/MTGrepp/status/1857774850905174322" target="_blank">X post</a> that said Riggs overtaking Griffin is "what stealing an Election looks like." </p> <p>Absentee ballots that arrived on Election Day, military and overseas absentee ballots that arrived by Nov. 14, and provisional ballots were all counted after Election Day and contributed to the margin changing. Voters in Hurricane Helene-affected areas were able to submit their absentee ballots to any county board of elections office this year, and those votes were also more likely to be counted after Election Day, North Carolina’s <a href="https://www.ncsbe.gov/news/press-releases/2024/10/30/9-facts-about-vote-counting-and-reporting-process-nc" target="_blank">Board of Elections</a> reported.</p> <p>On Nov. 19, Griffin filed election protests challenging more than 60,000 ballots, according to a North Carolina Republican Party <a href="https://x.com/NCGOP/status/1859013269648011409" target="_blank">press release</a>. The Raleigh-based <a href="https://archive.ph/Jkobl" target="_blank">News & Observer</a> reported the protests argued counties had counted ballots from voters who were unregistered, had been serving felony sentences or who died before Election Day. </p> <p>The State Board of Elections is asking lawyers for the campaigns to <a href="https://www.wral.com/story/amid-supreme-court-recount-nc-elections-board-approves-plan-for-reviewing-60-000-contested-ballots/21732144/" target="_blank">provide more information</a>, and asking counties to investigate specific claims to see if irregularities exist. But Riggs overtaking Griffin does not itself prove any problems with the count. </p> <p>"No, it’s not evidence that you should be concerned about the process; again, it’s evidence that you should be happy that the process is working as it was designed to," Young said.</p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>Wisconsin</strong></div> <p>Another <a href="https://x.com/DineshDSouza/status/1856091353366827469" target="_blank">X post</a> in the Instagram Reel from conservative commentator Dinesh D’Souza alleged a 3 a.m. "ballot dump" lost Republicans the Wisconsin Senate race and said Republicans should "sound the alarm." </p> <p>We fact-checked a similar claim that a late night influx of votes was evidence of fraud already, and rated it <a href="https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/nov/14/instagram-posts/no-an-early-morning-influx-of-milwaukee-votes-does/">Pants on Fire</a>. Wisconsin election workers cannot begin processing absentee ballots before Election Day, so the early morning ballot tranche was expected. The addition represented ballots that were known to be tabulated in Milwaukee and had not yet been reported. </p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>Alaska</strong></div> <p>The video highlighted a Nov. 16 <a href="https://x.com/ChazNuttycombe/status/1857991784653090921" target="_blank">X post</a> that said Democrats had won a controlling coalition in Alaska’s House of Representatives, with the video’s creator questioning why "only the Dems" benefit from "late ballot dumps." </p> <p>Alaska takes particularly long to count because of <a href="https://www.adn.com/politics/2024/11/19/two-weeks-after-election-day-alaska-is-still-counting-ballots-this-isnt-new/" target="_blank">unique factors</a>: It’s geographically rural and has hard-to-reach towns that may slow mail delivery. The state allows absentee ballots to be received up to 10 days postelection. </p> <p>Alaska’s <a href="https://www.elections.alaska.gov/RCV.php" target="_blank">ranked-choice voting</a> system means it could take longer for a winner to be determined. </p> <p>That the party in control of <a href="https://alaskapublic.org/2024/11/18/what-to-expect-from-the-34th-alaska-legislature/" target="_blank">Alaska’s House of Representatives</a> was not known until more than a week after the election reflects how Alaska counts ballots. It doesn’t signal election interference. </p> <div class="pf_subheadline"><strong>Our ruling</strong></div> <p>An Instagram video claimed "ballot dumps" showed election officials are improperly "flipping" elections for Democrats.</p> <p>A patchwork of state and local laws regulates how ballots are counted across the country, and each state has rules that affect how fast ballots are counted. Unprocessed absentee ballots, provisional ballots and late-arriving mail ballots are all more likely to be counted after Election Day. </p> <p>The late additions of votes are a sign that every vote is being counted and states are following regular election procedures. These changing results are far from fraud; they reveal state and local election officials’ efforts to follow, not subvert, the law.</p> <p>We rate this claim Pants on Fire!</p></body></html> </article> </div> <div class="t-row__right"> <div class="m-callout "> <h4 class="m-callout__title"> Read About Our Process </h4> <div class="m-callout__icon"> <svg class="c-icon "> <use xlink:href="#svg_magnifier"></use> </svg> </div> <div class="m-callout__body"> <p> <a href="/article/2018/feb/12/principles-truth-o-meter-politifacts-methodology-i/"> The Principles of the Truth-O-Meter </a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="c-flyer c-flyer--in-sidebar"> <div adbridg-ad-class="mid-rect"></div> </div> </div> </section> <section class="t-row "> <div class="t-row__left"> </div> <div class="t-row__center"> <div adbridg-ad-class="bottom-leaderboard"></div> </div> <div class="t-row__right"> </div> </section> <section class="t-row"> <div class="t-row__left"></div> <div class="t-row__center"> <section id="sources" class="m-superbox"> <header class="m-superbox__header"> <h3 class="m-superbox__title">Our Sources</h3> </header> <article class="m-superbox__content"> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCfw83INpoa/?utm_source=ig_embed" target="_blank">Instagram Reel</a>, Nov. 18, 2024</p> <p>Phone interview with Tammy Patrick, chief programs officer for the National Association of Election Officials, Nov. 19, 2024</p> <p>Phone interview with Jay Young, senior director of voting and democracy at Common Cause, Nov. 20, 2024</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1857556186964668563" target="_blank">X post</a>, Nov. 15, 2024</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/nicksortor/status/1857956282465988654" target="_blank">X pos</a>, Nov. 16, 2024</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/MTGrepp/status/1857774850905174322" target="_blank">X post</a>, Nov. 16, 2024</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/DineshDSouza/status/1856091353366827469" target="_blank">X post</a>, Nov. 11, 2024</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/ChazNuttycombe/status/1857991784653090921" target="_blank">X post</a>, Nov. 16, 2024</p> <p>U.S. Election Assistance Commission, <a href="https://www.eac.gov/election-officials/election-results-canvass-and-certification" target="_blank">Election Results, Canvass, and Certification</a>, Nov. 4, 2024</p> <p>Bucks County Courier Times, <a href="https://www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/local/2024/11/14/david-mccormick-bob-casey-senate-bucks-county-lawsuit-ballot-count-2024-election/76293859007/" target="_blank">McCormick campaign sues Bucks County Board of Elections over undated, misdated ballots</a>, Nov. 14, 2024</p> <p>New York Times, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20241116164440/https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/11/05/us/elections/results-pennsylvania-president.html" target="_blank">Pennsylvania Presidential Election Results archive Nov. 16, 2024</a>, accessed using Archive.org on Nov. 20, 2024</p> <p>New York Times, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20241116235208/https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/11/05/us/elections/results-pennsylvania-president.html" target="_blank">Pennsylvania Presidential Election Results archive Nov. 16, 2024</a>, accessed using Archive.org on Nov. 20, 2024</p> <p>Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6EKHZ6avvI" target="_blank">Post Election Day Press Conference</a>, Nov. 6, 2024</p> <p>VoteBeat, <a href="https://www.votebeat.org/pennsylvania/2024/11/18/ballot-dating-requirement-supreme-court-bucks-montgomery-philadelphia-counties/" target="_blank">Pennsylvania Supreme Court stops 3 counties from counting undated, incorrectly dated ballots</a>, Nov. 18, 2024</p> <p>California Secretary of State, <a href="https://electionresults.sos.ca.gov/returns/us-rep/district/45" target="_blank">U.S. House of Representatives District 45 -
