Thousands of Uncounted Votes Found a Week After Election in Puerto Rico – The New York Times. The New York Times, Miércoles, 11 de noviembre de 2020.

Nearly 200 boxes of uncounted votes have surfaced, potentially affecting the outcome of several close races across the island.

The results were preliminarily certified, even as candidates complained that some votes appeared to be missing.

“First they said they found four boxes of uncounted votes. Then it was 50, and last night 100,” said Fermín Arraiza, an elections observer. “I get there this morning, and it’s 115 boxes. Now I think it’s 190.”

“We have been saying for the last week that there had been thousands and thousands of ballots that were not accounted for,” Mr. Natal said. “Now not only did they admit that there are ballots that haven’t been counted, but the memory cards from the counting machines have gone missing.”

In the newly discovered boxes, many uncounted ballots from different precincts were found mixed together “in the wrong place, badly organized,” Mr. Rosado said. But he stressed that none of them had left the elections vault, and that their discovery underscored the transparency of the process.

Auditoría a votos va, pero se convirtió en un inventario objetado. Noticel. Miércoles 11 de diciembre de 2020.

Los comisionados electorales de cuatro de los cinco partidos políticos se opusieron a la participación en el proceso de la Oficina del Inspector General de Puerto Rico por ser este un ente de la rama ejecutiva.

Se supone que el alcance de la auditoría fuera una investigación [de]: la Comisión adquirió tantas papeletas, la Comisión en el voto adelantado recibió tantas papeletas, la Comisión envió a través de JAVA tantas papeletas por correo, tantas papeletas a domicilio, tantas papeletas al precinto, tantas papeletas fueron enviadas a las cárceles, tantas papeletas fueron enviadas a los hospitales y aclararle ya el tema de que una vez se finalice la divulgación de los resultados, se comparen esos datos con las actas que se entraron en el sistema.
