    I’d rather them take the time it needs to get it right, whoever wins, than to rush and have to do recounts over and over. Keep in mind that many doing this work are volunteers. Let them do the job.

      Mississippi doesnt actually have a method for recounting elections. Ballots are destroyed immediately after they’re counted. Whatever is determined is the only outcome, this is also why tallying takes so long

        Well that’s not suspicious or prone to encouraging nefarious actions at all.
