In this episode, Chairman David Hann and Executive Director Anna Mathews are joined by Sherburne County Commissioner Andrew Hulse to discuss the election night issues in Sherburne County.

The conversation centers on a data upload error involving mail-in ballots. Due to a partially seated memory card, the Minnesota Secretary of State's website displayed only partial election results. Commissioner Hulse explains the complex tabulation and reporting process, the safeguards in place, and the human error that caused the discrepancy.

Commissioner Hulse emphasizes that no ballots were "found" but that the data was incorrectly transmitted. The issue led to a recount, which confirmed the accuracy of the results. The discussion highlights broader concerns about election security, human error, and the impact of public mistrust on voter turnout.

Hann and Mathews call for greater citizen involvement in the electoral process through public test attendance, engagement with county commissioners, and serving as election judges.
