Election Day in Pennsylvania’s largest, typically red county has been smooth so far, according to Lancaster County election officials, reports. “Things are going extremely well,” said Lancaster County Commissioner Ray D’Agostino. “We like boring.” By 3pm ET, elections workers had finished opening and scanning more than 50% of the roughly 64,000 mail-in ballots returned, the officials announced during a news conference. The county expects to complete the counting of mail-in ballots by midnight tonight. “This could be record turnout,” said Commissioner Josh Parsons, noting reports of long lines at polling places, particularly those in the suburbs and rural areas of the county, which sits more than an hour and a half west of Philadelphia. Former President Donald Trump won Lancaster County in 2016 and 2020, but Democrats have been working to bring the margin closer in this Southeastern rural county.
