Lake Worth Commission races still up in air as 100 ballots need to be checked by hand

New article - click title for link. Another act in the comedy of errors:


Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher said her staff finished counting the missing 500 absentee ballots last night, but more than 100 of those ballots still need to be checked by hand.
More than 100 ballots were damaged last night in the recount machines, Bucher said. She added that her staff would begin checking those ballots about 2 p.m. today.
Bucher said an announcement on what kind of impact -- if any -- those recounted missing ballots have on the Lake Worth City Commission races will be made later this afternoon.
