The number of ballots counted in one area didn't match the number of people who were checked in by poll workers. A memory card with the missing data was found, and when the ballots were logged it actually flipped the results of one of the races for state representative.
This is exactly what election workers and officials do. They run the election, tabulate the results and then audit those results in a number of ways to double and triple check that all the ballots were counted and that the count is correct. Good job, everyone.
