You would expect the same trend in other states then. High population areas would have more ballots and take longer to count, but the travel time is way more than the count time, so we don't see that in michigan. 10 people can count to 1000 in only 10 minutes. The fact that detroit took 8 hours to deliver from detroit to detroit means they were doing far more than just counting and putting ballots in boxes to be mailed.
