Kern County elections chief Sandy Brockman just said the numbers are NOT coming in as fast as they used to.
That's because they have to count by hand, burn it on a CD and take the CD into another room and upload it on to the county net.
They are not allowed to modem results even from across the room.
They're even driving results in from Ridgecrest and other burgs to be counted downtown.
Can't count them on site and then modem them in on a dedicated line.
