AP VoteCast: Less than half of voters are very confident about ballot counts

Manila Bulletin

About 4 in 10 voters said they were very confident that their ballots would be accurately counted nationwide, according to AP VoteCast, an expansive survey of more than 115,000 voters in the United States.   About 3 in 4 voters said they were at least somewhat confident, while nearly 1 in 4 were not confident in the ballot counts.   Voters were more confident in the tallies in their individual states, with about half saying they were very confident.
