    They couldn’t even hand count an election of 127 people correctly. Imagine how big the errors would have been with thousands of votes.

    The fact is that this isn’t being counted by full time well-trained accountants, but by temporary and on-call employees at best, and lots of them are retirees, who can afford not to have a full-time gig.

    Hand counting requires more blind faith trust than a machine you can easily audit at any time.

    It’s not just about the speed, it’s about an inhuman level of consistency and memory that the machine provides.
