Warren County officials expanded security at the election site counting room by closing all but one entrance and using bomb-sniffing dogs on ballot boxes. County Commissioner Pat South said the steps followed emergency guidance to protect the vote process and facilities, not to bar media. Bush led Kerry 66 523 to 25 399 in unofficial Warren results amid a fast-growing county with strong GOTV efforts. A Democratic observer noted a smooth tally, while concerns over provisional ballots were raised by attorney Jeff Ruppert who had access as a witness.
