Could this happen in Cochise County?
Northern California Shasta County has become the first county in the U.S. to dump its Dominion voting machines in favor of a hand count of ballots.
From the Los Angeles Times article 4/28/2023: "The board's decision earlier this year to sever the county's long-standing relationship with Dominion, one of the largest suppliers of voting machines and software in the U.S, has garnered national attention as an example of the chaos wrought by unfounded claims of voter fraud pushed by former President Trump and his allies after his failed 2020 reelection bid. Last week, Fox News agreed to pay Dominion $787.5 million to settle a defamation suit the company filed accusing the network of knowingly promoting false claims that its voting machines had been used to manipulate election results."
Shasta's elected Registrar of Voters (similar to Cochise County's elected Recorder) objected, but now has been instructed to begin preparations for a hand count election this coming November. The board of supervisors told that there would be costs up to $3 million for additional personnel to do the hand count the next two elections, instructed the Registrar of Voters to hire an additional 7 people.
