What type of looks do you need for a gig like this? Also what type of area is best for the business.

I'm not sure how they do it in larger counties but in mine we scan and enter every vote no matter if it is early voting, election day, vote by mail, uocava, provisionals or 10-day over seas.

Same experience here in Florida at my local shop, nobody is allowed in and the people bringing out the pizza do not touch the pizza boxes. They have the front door as one-way only so people cannot go inside.

Doing a recount is slow for a few reasons. During a machine recount you have to keep the ballots in the same groups and precincts that they originated. This means that they have to scan one precinct or group at a time before moving to the next on that machine. The more machines you have the more precincts you can do at once. Broward has hundreds of precincts. Depending on procedures they may seal and verify every bag.

A manual recount is another beast. In order to do every ballot with a recount race you have to either sort every nonapplicable race out or go through every ballot one by one race by race. You would need a massive amount of people to get it done in a timely manner if not machine sorted. When doing the manual recount each party can send a representative per recount table to object decisions. This means that every ballot can possibly be contested, and with the races being this close the representatives are taking a closer look.

We had to complete manual recount for the Senate and agriculture races. There were a few hundred under or over voted ballots for senator and a few thousand for agriculture. It took us about a hour per 100 votes for senator and about a hour per 1000 votes for agriculture. This is because people mismarked the senator race so votes were determined by voter intent whereas the agriculture race we're almost all from voters not making a choice. The senator race had 10x as many objections as the agriculture race. In the end the votes changed but were balanced out 10 for Rick Scott and 10 for Bill Nelson.

By law there has to be a logic and accuracy test which uses a sample of the the ballots going out and actual equipment that is being used. For the L&A there has to be varied votes for every candidate and race. This means that tens to hundreds of ballots have to be tested and ran through each type of equipment.
