it's not the voting system tabulators that is the cause of taking so long to count ballots. it's the mail-in voting. In person voting is uploaded with just a few days (aside form conditional -aka provisional - ballots, which are a minority of the in person ballots cast. The processing of the vote by mail ballots is what takes so long - sorting, verifying signatures, and scanning in to central counting tabulators and then adjudicating. When people vote in person, they do all of the above simply by checking in and scanning their ballot directly into the voting machine. In brief, if people don't like how long it takes to process the vote by mail ballots then all they need to do is stop voting by mail. That means drop boxes too - whether the ballot arrives by mail or via drop box pickup the processing of the ballot once at the central counting location is the same.
