Yet, Trump won in 2016 despite having 3 million fewer votes
Showing the power of those small population states

Nope he won big states in 2016 that he lost in 2020.

I wonder how long it takes to count to 32 trillion?

Counting it out in $1 bills at 1 second per bill 24/7 with no breaks, it would take 31+ years to count 1 trillion. So multiply 31 years by 32 you get more than 992 years.

However when it comes to elections, the average number of registered voters among the roughly 177,000 precincts in the USA is 800. Especially if ballots were separated into federal and local elections, it should be a snap for 8 or 10 counters to count the ballot by hand in most precincts, give the tally to poll watchers and call in or transmit the results of the federal vote within a couple or so hours and the rest should be completed in another few hours.

You consider MI, WI, PA and GA "big states"?

It's not the small counties that take time. It's the high population areas.

Applying "average voters" by county doesn't work when the lowest population county in the country (Loving, TX) has 43 and the largest county in the nation (LA County, C) has over 9,000,000.

Especially when many states don't even allow mail-in ballots to be processed until election day. Some states allow for security pre-processing so the ballots only need to be counted. Other states allow mail-in ballots to be processed AND counted prior to election day. That factors in also.

Big enough to tip the win. again, Trump won 30 states in 2020 and LOST.

Thus the nature of it being about winning states instead of just worrying about actual votes.

Machine counting is more accurate than hand counting

Turns out you are mistaken.

Trump only won 25 states in 2020

And was a dumb decision as it was never the intent of the founders

The Constitution Is What Put the Crack in the Liberty Bell

The same ignorant schemers who had the loser in the election become Vice-President? Who didn't believe that political parties would develop? Who opposed a Bill of Rights and had to be forced to adopt it by the outrage of the citizens? Who were hoping to establish a lifetime House of Lords and monarchy but were prevented from doing so by their elitist fear of "the mob"? Who presented us with a Preamble that they in no way followed?

again stupid 30 out of 50 states went to Trump and he lost. You whiners don't have a point.

Those twenty states gave B the popular and electoral vote.

Those Who Can't Respire Need to Retire

To offer an explanation to future historians, shouldn't SloJo's picture have him wearing a mask? It would explain to them how being deprived of oxygen during the campaign year resulted in his brain damage. History
should treat him kindly because he donated his brain to "science."

I was not talking counties. I was talking precincts. The average of 800 voters per precinct is factored from registered voters in all precincts including LA County. Some precincts have two or so thousand people. Some have very few. But the larger precincts can recruit more counters. Most precincts can count the votes in their precinct in a relatively short time. Votes should be counted where they are cast and not transported somewhere else for counting.

Machine counting is more accurate than hand counting

Is it? And how would you know that? When I feed my ballot into the tabulating machine used here, I have no way of knowing whether my vote was counted at all, much less whether it was counted in the same way as I cast it. The ONLY one who knows is the person who programmed it. That does not inspire confidence in the electorate.

Hand counting with bipartisan poll watchers is much more difficult to rig if there is any kind of reasonable system to ensure only legal ballots will be cast. And once the poll watchers are given the tally of the hand count, the ballots can then be fed into the machines to be transmitted to a central compilation area. Much more difficult to rig or cheat the system that way.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Foxfyre does not know any such thing.

She suspects hand counting is better.

" Most precincts can count the votes in their precinct in a relatively short time." Not if they have massive numbers. Many have far more than 800 votes.
