It appears that there is still a lot of counting to do after Tuesday's election. If you're watching and waiting for the outcome of Prop 203, you'll have to wait a little longer. It looks like we may not know for sure until November the 12th. Below is some information from Ken Bennett at the Secretary of State's Office.

As of Wednesday afternoon, there were an estimated 290,000 early ballots and 84,000 provisional ballots statewide left to count.

Most of the remaining early ballots were dropped off at the polls on Election Day.

Provisional ballots are cast in a variety of situations including when a voter forgets to bring proper identification to the polls. A voter has five business days after a general election to return with proper identification so their provisional ballot will count.

Maricopa County, with nearly 219,000 early ballots and 55,000 provisional ballots, accounts for the bulk of the state's uncounted ballots.
