I’m just saying, scenario one would help me sleep a whole lot better. If people came out in droves specifically in swing states to only vote for Trump, then it is what it is. The fact it’s not a standard preliminary check, and it was passed over because the margins were just outside the bounds of automatic recount… it matters.
And if scenario two is the case, to hell with the machines, let’s get back to hand counting everything and waiting weeks for a final verified result. The machines are here to simplify counting and speed up reaching a consensus, if they are not accurate they have failed in their purpose and should be discarded from the process. This does not bring election integrity into question since there is a paper trail to back it up. If the machines are broken, miscounting or insecure - the public should know.
A ballot with only a single candidate/position filled out. No down ticket voting present with it.
