Hi All,

My husband and I dropped our ballots off at the Powell Rd office on October 8th and got our sticker. We live in Sumter county. When we look on line it still says that our ballot was received but not counted. How long is should I expect it to take for them to count our votes? Doesn't it seem odd that it would take more than a week to input our vote?

So? Plenty of time still

Sumter County Supervisor of Elections > Home

Look under VOTER LOOKUP.

We turned ours in at the same place on 10/9 and they hadn't been counted yet, so I emailed the Supervisor of Elections from their web site. The next day someone from there actually called me on the phone and said the ballots will be counted this coming Thursday.

The status depends on which way you are voting. (Grinning.)

the site to see if your ballot has been submitted is:
Sumter County Supervisor of Elections > Home
select Lookup Voter Information
provide required information (last name, date of birth and house number)
select Show My Mail Ballot Information

[mjpuleo]

N44125--first go into Sumter County Supervisor of Elections > Home and then follow instructions I listed above (disregard Sumter County Supervisor of Elections > Home

N44125 -- I was correct the first time I told you; I see mixsonci gave the correct information as well

Mail In Ballot status only shows that your ballot has been received and has not been disqualified. Mail In Ballots will be opened and "counted" on Election Day by the Sumter County Board of elections. I was assured that all Mail In Ballots will be counted by 7 PM on Election Day

Our ballots will be opened and counted on Thursday according to the phone call I received. Perhaps that is the first day of early voting?

It's just a joke, calm down!

So, why was you checking. It’s the ones that don’t check that rack up the votes.

I’ve often wondered why people would vote for someone a month or two before an election . What if something terrible comes out as it has in many local elections. I’m 81 years old and I embrace change in everything but I’ll vote on Election Day like always and reflect on the days when you got a free drink from the ward boss for voting lol
