May or may not make a difference. I have heard that many states do not count absentee ballots if the races are such that the absentee ballots won't make a difference.
So if John Doe for governor is ahead of his opponent by 5,000 votes, the 456 absentees won't change the results, so they don't bother.

LOVELIEST of trees, the cherry now / Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride / Wearing white for Eastertide.
Now, of my threescore years and ten, / Twenty will not come again,
And take from seventy springs a score, / It only leaves me fifty more.
And since to look at things in bloom / Fifty springs are little room,
About the woodlands I will go / To see the cherry hung with snow.
