They generally aren't. Its why I hate absentee ballots and early voting for those that have the ability to do it on vote day. the reason behind it as its been explained to me is.......

If person A has 50000 votes

And person B has 40000 votes

and there is 1000 absentee votes, they won't count them because there is not enough to make a change.

Same here. IF they claim there is not enough to change the outcome, they wont count them. Frankly in my opinion its criminal. But its reality. Its why I will never vote absentee or early. Unless I have no other choice

my vote in 2008 wasn't counted or so I heard. I was in Iraq and even now, the county I live in is absentee ballot only, there are no polling booths at all. Wondering if anyone even opened my envelope.
