<Pullin, Why do states would allow for a manual recount if their research did not show that manual recounts allow for greater accuracy?

The facts were discussed in court yesterday in response to the judge's questions. The machines are 1950's technology. I am not here to convince you. If you would watch television or read the multiple articles on CNN or other sites you could actually find the truth you are seeking. It has been discussed not once but multiple times.

If you still are not convinced, think about this:

Why do states would allow for a manual recount if their research did not show that manual recounts allow for greater accuracy?

Sorry, that's the bottom line. If you can't use logic instead of emotion than I can't help you. You go ahead and believe what you want, ok? >

Dave Gore -

You made a claim that machine counts have a margin of error of 3-5%. Pullin simply asked for you to back up your claim with fact. You have not done so.
