According to the article, returning to hand counting ballots will result in unrest and outright violence while claims of voter fraud are "unproven". Gov. Newsom had to step-in to stop other counties from returning to counting ballots by hand.

Read the whole article. It show how terrified Democrats are of returning to paper ballots.

We need to stop using Dominion voting machines. This should be a priority.

yes you should

no other country in the World uses voting machines, because they’re hackable (see 2020 election)

Canada, UK, Australia, etc. all use paper ballots - hand-counted, with observers from every party present - and all know the winner before the nite is out ... none of this multi-day nonsense

just sayin’

actually, all voters in counties where a voting machine of any flavor is being used need to boycott elections, until the french hand count system is instituted.

I never-ever heard of voting machine concerns when I voted from those gray curtain closed lever style voting machines. Sometimes progress and technology is a bad thing.

Go back to mechanical lever machines. Instant results and unhackable.

The U.K. manages to hand count ballots in front of representatives of all parties and get accurate reports within hours of the polls closing. The state of California says that Shasta County is incapable of doing the same without the help of machines. Somehow what has worked for centuries is now beyond us.

The train has left the station.

Either we live with the results of early voting, mail in voting, absentee voting, and ballot harvesting or we put in place a government that forces a return to paper ballots only only on Election Day.

I have no idea how such a government could come to power, however.

You can make it a priority all you want - but an elected Legislature in California just passed, and an elected Governor signed, a law outlawing paper ballots.

Everybody here loved early voting, which is actually the worst offense against the old system. Then the Democrats fought back with ballot harvesting.

Neither side is willing to return to Election Day, and unless that changes nothing will improve.

a far-right majority on the Board of Supervisors, swept up in unproven voter fraud claims, decided to dump Dominion voting machines and hand-count its ballots instead.

Far-right and unproven claims of Dominion machine fraud. Nope no bias here. Imagine anyone thinking fair elections and correct vote counting is something wrong.

This isn't just one county where suspicion of Dominion irregularities is present; it's the only one where something has been done.

Heck, it wasn't all that long ago Democrats in only THREE counties in this country were micro-inspecting hanging chads to discern 'voter intent.'

Why they're bracing for turmoil...

Bill limiting ballot hand counting in California becomes law; one county pledges to defy statute

They will be done counting by 10:00 p.m. All of the votes will be accounted for at each precinct (or voting district) matching the grand totals. There will be no anomalies.
