It takes time - we wouldn't know who was elected president until several days after the election was over.

I tried to write that in a neutral tone. However you might find it as amusing as me to read it (with required word changes) in different dialects. I think the stereotypical "valley girl" best captures how I feel about it.

That doesn't seem like much of an issue to me when the alternative is nobody trusts the results.

To you. But it is a big deal some someone else. Your task is to figure out who, and why. (why tends to be obvious once you realize who)

there is more than one correct answer.

I come up with the news media who need to excitement of the vote to not wane.
