Correct, it isnt even a count, per se. For a TA you are free to change your vote up until the close. Once voting closes the totals are sent electronically to the board to certify, sent to the MEC and us shortly. The MEC is not able to watch vote submissions come in, regardless of what some think, there aren't any boxes of votes that Stuart will be sneaking in from Maricopa county.
