(20,875 posts)Machines don't care, and when operated by an equal number of each party, they are quite accurate. I know enough about the system to say that with complete confidence.
Would you have one of each party manually view each ballot, declare their tally independently in a log, have a checker make sure the counts are compatible, and reliably combine the district's hand count to a final hand written sum?
I guess you could call up the National Guard for such a labor intensive task, but I want millions of votes recorded accurately before inauguration day. Perhaps you vote in Podunk Holler where you and the other townfolk hand your ballot to Mr Drucker at the general store, but the rest of us deal in logistics of a much larger scale here in the 21st century.
Cars drive themselves, we shop at home with credit cards, and people vote on electronic machines. Welcome to the future, you're late.
