I also think you're allowed to cure ballots, so the first column is wrong too.
Yikes.

What? Yes of course you can count ballots after election day, that's not the issue. The issue is that some (thousands of) ballots should have been disqualified and weren't.
That's the first order question: Does this ballot satisfy the rules? If it does, cure away, it's a valid ballot. Many ballots were counted that were not valid though, which the audit revealed.
I mean, what do you think the odds are that the count was perfect? Every legitimate ballot was counted, and every illegitimate ballot wasn't? The odds of that are essentially zero, for any election.
