The scanning of all ballots from Fayette Countyâs primary election has been completed with the next stage of the just process beginning. âWeâve got just about everything scanned in,â said Larry Blosser, the director of the Fayette County Election Bureau, on Wednesday. On the May 18 primary day, scanners in voting precincts rejected about 5,500 Republican ballots without bar codes, which were set aside to be hand counted later. Those Republican ballots and about 500 Democrat ballots have been part of the hand-counting effort by the Fayette County Election Bureau that started the day after the election. With all the ballots being counted on Wednesday, Blosser said they also started the adjudication process on the same day.
