F*ck those people.
General Sherman did a halfassed job.

Trump thanked them by name at one of his rallies. **** these pieces of shit traitors
This Patriot who destroyed the Taliban in court after the 2020 election is on the case
Wait, the party that has so many of their constituents demand votes be counted on election day now decide to stretch it out for weeks.
Who woulda thunk it? They never contradict themselves! 🙄
Wasn't Georgia the state last time that took waaaaaay too long to get their results?
They are petrified of Harris winning.
I hope those persuadable moderates who think Libs like me are overwrought at what might happen in November - January read this. This is the plan. Overthrow the election if Trump loses, but make it look a little more legal this time. Drag everything out.

There were just short of 5 million votes cast for president in Georgia in 2020. It would take weeks to count them by hand. Counting by hand is more expensive and less accurate. But since it’s controlled by partisan boards who can manipulate things it sounds like something you’d support.
That's why they're doing this dude. JFC.
I wrote off Georgia long ago because I figured the Republican fascists who control the state will never let Harris win it this year. Probably same thing with Florida if Harris is close there. Democracy is dying in this country, effing fascists.
Not to mention the ratfukery taking place in Nebraska right now
Supposedly Maine will do the same thing in response if Nebraska removes the blue dot so it will hopefully end up being a wash.
I thought so too but ME’s legislature adjourned yesterday (coincidence right?) and apparently their constitution prevents new laws going into effect for 90 days and they’re now under that for certification. The R’s played them like a fiddle unfortunately.
Maine Democrats have likely run out of time to change Electoral College laws if Nebraska GOP acts
As the Trump campaign pressures Nebraska Republicans for a change that would net him an electoral vote, state law in Maine would block Democrats from making a counter-move.

They are still machine counting. Pretty sure the state will force the certification on that and leave the hand counting exercise as a novelty to get the results of the following April.
So look for law suits to be filed by end of day to stay the change in Nebraska and GA until after the election?
My prediction is the legislature will try to force certification of the white, rural, areas who are able to complete the hand counting within a couple weeks and exclude the totals from the urban areas where it will take months. Trump wins in a landslide.
GA and AZ have spent four years trying to find ways to ensure the GOP wins regardless of who the voters pick.
Google is your friend. It was tried in Arizona in a county and the process was riddled with errors. It would costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. For absolutely no benefit.
I watched our location, count, dispute, recount, confirm, and announce, a thousand votes in a couple minutes with like 5-6 old ladies doing the counting with a rep from each side watching the tables.
scale that.
It can be done.
Learned automation was more efficient, effective, and accurate in grade school science.
If voting is close. Hand recounts get triggered anyway. Machine and hand recounts rarely vary by more than a tenth of a percent. Considering that’s involving the process of millions of votes. Starting with hand counting is a waste.
He have a country whose entire election is realistically going to come down to thousands of votes in a handful of counties across 7, but it could be as little as 3, states, and this is one of the "3" I'm good with it.
Really it just comes down to PA. It's insanely unlikely that the person who wins PA doesn't win the election.
Harris probably isn't going to win GA or NC or AZ but lose PA.
Trump is probably not going to lose PA but win Michigan or Wisconsin. Although I consider this a slightly higher possibility than the former.

Ok, then if it’s hand counted no reporting of results until all counties have gotten through their totals. Every vote in the state must be counted before anything can be shared.
And there is your problem. People talk. Especially about hot gossip. Absolutely no chance it won’t leak or have fake leaks etc etc.
Call me old fashioned but if one person sitting at a table with a rep from each side watching them count, and then having some table talk change the ways math works, is your fear over a machine that can be controlled from anywhere in the world...... we can just agree to disagree.
An optic machine can not be controlled from anywhere. You’re watching too much Jason Bourne. Totals and batches are matched and rematched.
Someone can’t just flip some key strokes and go unnoticed.
Studies also reveal serious concerns about hand count accuracy. Rice University conducted a study in which participants hand counted just two races on 120 ballots. The participants accurately counted the results of the two races only 58% of the time. An MIT study in New Hampshire found that poll workers who counted ballots by hand were off by 8%. The error rate for machine counting was about 0.5%.

My issue is not on thousands of ballots. But when you’re processing hundreds of thousands. More people involved the greater chance for error.
