<< As much as I think it is an absurd proposition that manual recounts are "more accurate" than machine recounts ... >>

I agree. I've worked with computer systems for years. We would never accept "one" error as being acceptable. The pundants are all saying how computerized systems have significant error rates. This is nonsense!

The error rates in the punched card ballots are in the design and effectiveness of the machines and system, and not because of the automation and computerization.

The public should be outraged that, up to 10% of voters ballots are rejected. What an awful system, and what a disgraceful slap in the face of the voting public.
