No, really. That's pretty much what they're saying.

The voters in most Arizona counties have been calling for the hand-counting of ballots ever since the 2020 election was stolen from President Trump. The 2022 midterms that resulted in the installation of Democrat Katie Hobbs as Governor didn't help. Even podcaster Joe Rogan, who is no friend of conservatives, came out last week and admitted that the 2022 election was stolen from Kari Lake.

In order to prove to the rubes that it's too expensive and inaccurate to hand-count the ballots, Mohave County ran a hand-counting experiment earlier this year. The experiment was totally and deliberately botched in order to sow mistrust in the process of hand-counting ballots, versus using the super-accurate Trust-o-Matic counting machines that still take several weeks to count all the ballots in Arizona after every election.
