What is the point then? Why introduce a machine where none is needed. In most countries all votes are counted twice by his d and the initial voubt finishes in a few hours.
We had half the country believe a conspiracy theory based upon the fact that they didn't get to know who won the Election day of. There is NO way Americans would accept universal hand counting.
They're faster.
Are they? we used to have same day numbers... Now elections can take weeks to figure out who won. Progress in the negative direction.
Can you point to a solid reference that national elections had same day numbers and the years of those election s?
Same day results should be more than good enough and that is possible with hand counting in most of the world.
