Thousands of North Idaho votes weren't reported. Could they change election results?

Over 2,000 Latah County votes were not reported to the Idaho Secretary of State’s Office on election night. That represents over 10% of the votes cast in the county this election, said Joe Parris, a spokesperson for the office. Those ballots were counted by the county’s tabulation machines, but they were “not fully transferred” to the statewide election-night result reporting system, the office said in a Monday news release. An initial review indicates that no races’ outcomes will change with the addition of the unreported votes, the release says, but the Latah County Clerk’s Office is set to conduct a full recount of ballots — overseen by the Secretary of State’s Office — on Tuesday. Tom Lamar, a Latah County commissioner and the chair of the county’s board of election canvassers, called the situation “frustrating” but said he viewed it as an honest mistake by the clerk’s office. “I am not suspecting foul play,” he told the Idaho Statesman. “I want to be really clear about that.” The unreported votes seemed to stem from a “procedural error” in reporting election-night results, according to the Secretary of State’s Office. They were on a USB drive of early votes from the Latah

The original version of this story made two eye-catching claims: that the county has more guns than people and that it has absolutely no gun laws. Both deserve a closer look. There’s no reliable public count of privately owned guns in Lewis County, and federal and state firearm restrictions still apply.
