Cal. Elec. Code § 15271 — Manual Vote Count in the Precinct is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
As soon as the polls are finally closed, the precinct board shall commence to count the votes by taking the ballots cast, unopened, out of the box and counting them to ascertain whether the number of ballots corresponds with the number of signatures on the roster. The precinct board shall make a record upon the roster of the number of ballots in the ballot box, the number of signatures on the roster, and the difference, if any.
