    Usually a hand count has several people count the ballot and if they disagree, an official gets called over to sort it out.

    It’s why forcing a recount is not a good strategy unless you actually think you can win on it or have control of the source of ballots.

    There’s too many people involved and the scale is too granular to make it possible to fake shit in a hand count without it being obvious.
