What most surprises me about all of this is how people write as though there is only one correct side to this. The Republicans perceive the ballots involved in the handcounts as improper votes - therefore any attempt to count them is considered to be manipulation from the Democrats. Of course, the Democrats see those votes as perfectly legal votes - and counting them as the very essence of democracy. They therefore perceive any attempt to block the counting of those votes as manipulation and bullying. So few seem capable understanding why their opposition feels as though they have the moral obligation to act as they do.
