KPIX CBS Overnight News July 12, 2024

Going to get hung up, though, this is most likely where it will happen. In a close election, that could be decisive. Across the u. S. , missing or mismatched signatures doomed more than 150,000 ballots in 2016. And sure enough oh. This looks very different. Yeah. So thats an issue. Reporter this voters signature sent the commissioners i search of additional documentation. Now well look at her absentee application. And that one matches. Reporter we watched as they looked through four signatures on file. So it almost appears like she has a very serious signature, and a quick signature. It just seems like the pen strokes are different. I dont want to get involved. Its your call. Reporter the decision rejected. At least for now. They may talk to her and see. She may sign an attestation that se completed the ballot. Reporter in new york and 18 other states, voters are notified if their ballot is rejected and given an opportunity to fix it. But in most of the country, this is no such requirement. So the ballots can be tossed out and not only for signature issues, we saw two other ballots set aside because the internal envelopes werent sealed. But those were accepted with no evidence of tampering. This right here, this demonstrates why its so important for people to take extreme care when theyre filling out their ballots . Thats right. Reporter after the initial checks, the sealed ballots are scanned in and moved to a storage room. Its really secure. Theres three locks. A democratic lock, a republican lock, and if we were ever impounded by the court, that lock would be for the sheriff. Reporter in new york, they arent actually counted until three days after the polls close. So state officials can compare a list of absentee voters against the names of those who voted in person. So the point of the delay in counting is to make sure no one is double voting. Yes. Election results are always unofficial on election night. Reporter thats true for every state in america, where any vote can be contested or even thrown out. And this year, that fight is expected to be fiercer than most. Why, at this busy time, did you want to show us this . I think its all about transparency. We want to show the voters, first, how hard we work, that their ballot is going to be secure when its here. And then were concerned about their ballot and well take every precaution we can. We want to demystify it, right . People dont know when theyre nervous about things because they dont know. So even though were extremely busy, this gives us the opportunity to say to people, look, this is what happens to your ballot. We take it seriously. We want your vote to be counted. And these are all the steps we take to make sure it does. Tony dokoupil at the Rockland County elections office. Thanks, tony. Youre watching the cbs overnight news.

Fans may be surprised to know that more than half the songs recorded for that album were never released. Now, 26 years later, theyve been gathered in a box set along with never before seen photos and videos. The project was a labor of love for petty, who passed away three years ago and never saw it completed. Anthony mason spoke with pettys daughter and band mates about this dream project thats finally come true. Reporter tom pettys 1994 solo masterpiece wildflowers, included hit songs you dont know how it feels reporter and petty classics. But petty had planned for it to be a double cd. We did much more than the wildflow wildflowers album. We did 25 songs that we finished. Reporter wildflowers and all the rest includes all those unreleased songs. Like leave virginia alone.

It has the master set piece where you can see all the songs. This is you in the studio . Yeah, right here. I just went to a couple of sessions. Reporter when she went back into the archives, she found buried treasure. To go to Iron Mountain and find 16 millimeter reels of my dad i had never seen before from those sessions and find them performing these songs unreleased, and even my sister and i in the footage in the studio, all of that stuff i wouldnt replace for anything. Reporter petty worked for the first time with producer rick ruben, who says petty later revealed he was afraid of wildflowers. What did he mean . He was scared at that time because it was just one of those artistic bonanzas. You a really sparkly, magical, wizard of oz moment in his career. We always said thats the best record we ever made. Reporter ben and mike of pettys band the heartbreakers helped curate the unreleased material. There were a few things i didnt even remember at all, you know . It was a long time ago. Reporter petty was at a Pivotal Moment during the recording. His marriage to his first wife, jane, was coming apart. You describe coming home and asking him point blank, are you getting a divorce . Yeah. I just asked him and he kind of looked at me like, hey, not right now, if you dont mind. Yeah, it was pretty obvious. Reporter is that the kind of thing that he would put in a song easily . No. No. You know, whats unique about wildflowers is some of that stuff is a little more revealing, vulnerable, the insecurities. Reporter you hear it in the previously unreleased song confusion wheel. The release of wildflowers and all the rest was delayed by another rift in the petty family. Last year, she and her sister had a legal dispute with their stepmother, dana, over the administration of pettys estate. In december, they reached a settlement. Where is that now . Its water under the bridge. What was that about . I cant say that im dieing to talk about it, to be honest with you. I think it was about a lot of people grieving. Youve made peace . Oh, of course. Of course. What is it like for you to go through all this stuff . Its really ka thcathartic. It really hit me on the anniversary. I thought it was okay. Anybody thats lost a part, one year its fine, the next year brings you tears. I just miss the guy so much. Was it hard for you to both go back and listen to that material again . It was for me. It was exciting and mysterious, but it was also sad. You know, were still grieving. And it was hard to hear toms voice coming out of the speakers and not look over and see him sitting there. It was also really wonderful. It keeps it alive for me, and it keeps me really proud of what we did together. You dont know how it feels reporter before his death, petty talked about touring wildflowers. Playing more intimate theaters with guest vocalists. So the question has come up for the heartbreakers. Could you do it without him . Why . Picture this, we played together for 50 years and we were closer than any brothers could be. So i cant wrap my head around yet putting all the heartbreakers in a room, with all our instruments and going one, two, three, four and playing without him there. It would just be too damn weird. The rhythm came from that cat. If we dont e ir play live, im at peace with the music. And thats a treasure for me. Im fine with that. Are you saying you dont like me any more, mike .
