Steve Marcus-REUTERS continues to open voting at the Nevada box office
Two days have passed since November 3 (Tuesday), voting day, but the battle is still closed in the fierce state of battle. In Pennsylvania and Georgia, in particular, both camps and their supporters are delighted with the additional results of the opening of the vote. There are also reports of events such as election fatigue and “burn eating” and “eating doka” phenomena occurring in the United States.
In response to such a scene, some people say that the opening of voting in the US elections is “confusing”, fraud is rampant, or “a UN observer is needed.” Especially in Japan, there is a culture that really likes to do this kind of office work meticulously, so it is not unclear to hear such a voice.
However, there is a reason why it takes time to open the polls this time and the appearance of the polls is different in each state.
Record high voting rate
(1) First, there is no national level, that is, a unified federal “public office election law” in the United States. Although the president is a special position in the federal government, the presidential election itself is a “state decision” in which each state decides who to recommend to the president, and each state is based on its own rules. Just because there is no unity does not mean that it is confusing.
(2) Certainly, there are many states where the plan does not work, such as delayed opening hours. However, that is because the voting rate, which should not exceed 55% on average, has reached a record rate approaching 67% this time. For example, in states like Florida, where early voting was closed early and vote-by-mail was accounted for upon delivery, I was excited about the prospect of casting a final vote a few hours after the voting deadline, but not I could. This is also because the voting rate was so high that it went up and up in response to the number. No more no less.
(3) Conservative FOX News and others report that citizens who requested election monitoring were rejected and that the monitoring team discovered fraud. However, basically, in any voting office, a five-party monitoring system should be working, “Trump field representative”, “Republican party representative”, “Baiden field representative”, “Democratic party representative “and” representative of the local administration “. Voting is unlikely to open if the tracking system doesn’t work.
(4) There is a report that there are many opening balloters returning home at 5 PM even though it is very late. That may be true, but some states rely on volunteers to open polls on the spot. Most of them are family members and may have worked until midnight on voting day, but they cannot get work done after business hours every day. In each state, there are reports that they are afraid of making work errors due to fatigue, and that is why they manage not to exaggerate from the second day, and this is taken as common in the United States.
So it is true that it is taking a long time as the world holds its breath and watches. However, I believe that the sites of each box office are not confused and the accuracy of the count is not reduced. I would like to watch a little more patiently.
