Ben Fractenberg/THE CITY The city Board of Elections on Tuesday began manually counting ballots in a southeast Queens special election with big questions still unanswered about how voters’ selections will be tallied and disclosed under New York’s new ranked-choice system. With ranking software yet to be authorized by the state, the start of adding up some 7,400 ballots cast for the City Council seat formerly held by Borough President Donovan Richards for the first round of ranking took all day. Under ranked choice voting, launched this year, voters can list up to five candidates in order of preference. About 95,000 voters were eligible to cast ballots in the district, which covers parts of Southeast Queens and the Rockaways.
