- hilbertseries 6y agoThey’ve been keeping those ballots separate and their are 1k of them. They don’t matter.
- ddalex 6y agoI've been told that every vote matters
- lwansbrough 6y agoThat was already the policy and was happening before the ruling, the ruling basically just formalized the policy. Doesn’t change anything.
