          It doesn’t if the people doing the counting are interested in creating bogus claims of fraud.

              They’re already lying about past events which makes it clear that they’re going to keep on lying.

              “Again, I don’t see anyone saying that they’re planning to lie in order to claim fraud.”

              Everyone here has taken a lot of time to explain this to you. Here is an article that explains what is really going on.

              This is the opposite of building trust.

              It is just “hand counting good” with you and frankly it makes you look stupid because you are willfully missing the point.

                  I did go back and look at the comments and there were people doubting hand counting. I think this is misplaced and I do agree with your sentiment against this.

                  That is all fine and dandy, but in the context of what is going on right now in Georgia calling for hand counting in the 11th hour is asinine. There are many elections officials that are conspiracing as we discuss this.

                  The fact that people are on here doubting hand counting is a symptom of the discord that sowing election misinformation leads to.

                  This is the real issue, that we are allowing our systems to get damaged by falsehoods. Until we stop the lies things will stay shitty.
