KING COUNTY - A lawyer for the Washington state Republican Party and a group of veterans presented 91 affidavits Thursday to the King County elections director.
The statements say members of the military lost their right to vote when their absentee ballots went uncounted because of signature mis-matches or other problems. Republicans say they should be included.
The three-member county canvassing board is meeting today to consider more than 700 other disputed ballots that the state Supreme Court ruled can now be counted.
A spokeswoman says after the board finishes its work, King County elections officials expect to certify the results by 5 o'clock -- a little later than the previously expected time of 3 o'clock.
