Arizona election 2022: 17K ballots rejected by machines on Election Day will be counted soon

Those ballots are among the roughly 400,000 yet to be counted in Maricopa County, which also includes 275,000 early ballots dropped off by voters on Election Day, about 7,000 provisional ballots cast at polling sites and other early ballots that were received on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
