Human Error in Wyoming: Why Hand Counting Ensures Election Trust
Registered Voters Need to Do More Than Vote
The Wyoming article makes the unsupported claim that it will take 2,200 people to count 20,000 ballots in four hours. That is debunked in the eManual on page 263, where the Hand Count Estimator tool was used, and it showed that only 484 people were needed to count that many ballots in four hours.
Another feature of the Hand Count Estimator Tool is that it will calculate the percentage of registered voters needed to hand‑count an election. This stat is meant to put into perspective the small amount of the electorate that should step forward to serve as election workers, including hand count teams. (Missouri requires that only voters registered to vote in the state may serve as election judges.)
For Campbell County, WY, the estimator tool shows that less than 3% of registered voters make up 484 people needed to hand‑count an election. The percentage required to hand count would be 2.6% of voters casting ballots.
