In here? leg.wa.gov As close as I can find: WAC 434-261-070 Manual inspection of ballots. Upon breaking the seals and opening the ballot containers from the precincts, all voted ballots shall be manually inspected for damage, write-in votes, incorrect or incomplete marks, and questions of voter intent. The same manual inspection process shall apply to absentee ballots, mail ballot precinct ballots, and vote-by-mail ballots. This manual inspection shall include examining each voter response position, and is a required part of processing ballots used with all electronic vote tabulating systems. If the manual inspection process detects any ballots which might not be correctly counted by the tabulating equipment, the county may either: (1) Refer the ballots to the county canvassing board; (2) Duplicate the ballots if the intent of the voters is clear; or (3) Enhance the ballots if the intent of the voters is clear and enhancement can be accomplished without permanently obscuring the original marks of the voters. slc.leg.wa.gov which doesn't exactly say what he did.
