116. I thought you were demanding hand counts across the board, which does involve multiple races and tons of voters

Based on your reply that you are most interested in hand counting 2 races in your own small precinct, what happens elsewhere, like the seven swing states or Rockland County , NY doesn't seem to be relevant then.

Curious if your distrust of computers since you can't "oversee" the inner workings also apply to things like calculators, adding machines, and software programs like Excel? Abacus have been used for centuries and are an option, but would require some amount of training for election workers, as most people have never used one.

As a degreed engineer who worked regularly doing statistical analysis for manufacturing processes, I recognize that computers are exponentially more accurate than hand counting, but some people are very mistrustful of technology.
