teller
Counts votes officially
A teller is someone who tells—most commonly a bank employee who handles transactions at a window: The teller counted out five hundred dollars.
The word also applies to vote counters in legislatures and elections.
A teller of tales is a storyteller, though this usage sounds literary or old-fashioned.
Fortune tellers claim to predict the future.
