8. am I seeing something in this that's not there?
How come, starting on page 25 (I only look at a few pages after that until 28 or so)

the computer count is higher than the ballots used? (upper Left corner verses Line 1: Number of counted sigs in Poll book and Line 2: Number of ballots in Box)

From Page 25

Upper left corner: Computer Count 391 /391

Top Middle of page Number of ballots issued 500
*states to Balance Lines 1 and 2 must match

Left side of page
# of spoiled ballots 1
Last ballot number used 371
Number of provisional ballots 5

Right side of page
Line 1
Number of Counted signatures in poll book 365
Line 2 Voted Ballots in Ballot Box 365 (26 is written underneath (absentee)
Provisional Ballots listed lower is 3

Do Provisional and absentee ballots go INTO the machine? Or are they hand counted? Is that why there is a difference in the Computer number as opposed to the ballots issued number?
