Easily. This corruption and electronic mistakes are just not acceptable. I'd rather have it be the popular vote that anything else, because what politics boils down to is a popularity contest.

Waiting a couple of days would be just fine. It presents absolutely no real problem with the technical details of running a democracy.
Another benefit is that people in the west coast and Hawaii wouldn't feel frustrated due to the time zone difference. As it stands now, the national elections are sometimes already decided before the polls close on the west coast. This can make you feel like your vote doesn't count.
BTW, there is no need to revert to paper ballots if we utilize a computerized system that prints a receipt. The receipt allows recounts when necessary, and helps prevent hacking by allowing an audit.

I am willing to wait a day or two for election results of paper ballots, electronic voting or whatever IF an honest count in undertaken AND all citizens are given equal access to voting. EX: Why not have voting on two days--Saturday and Sunday so most voters can go to the polls. Hmmmm now what are we waiting for anyway?

I think we should all vote by mail on paper and wait two weeks for the results to be compiled. Then the fascist methods of blocking poeple from voting with police and 'scrubbing' tactics would not work any more.

Absolutely. There is no reason at all to rush the counts and every reason not to.
