  1. It seems odd that the votes are not counted until the next day. I have been in charge of a polling staion a couple of times in the UK and the votes are counted immediately after the polling stations are closed and often goes on through the night and into the next day if recounts are necessary. What about the security and integrity of the ballot boxes overnight?

     

    They will be secured at the count centre. A similar proceedure occurs in the UK for the European Parliamentary Election. The UK votes on a Thursday but the count only takes place on Sunday, in-line with the rest of the EU (who traditionally vote on a Sunday).
