Heya qwghlmian Doesn't it seem to be unwise to go meddle with something that could become evidence (while there is ongoing litigation)? I can certainly envision some future testimony in that scenario.... Attorney -- 'so, Mr. BOE, how do you think all those stickers got onto these ballots then? Head BOE Official -- Well...I think it might have been those Dems that came in in Feb, they did a total hand count, coulda been them.' Same for missing ballots, if ya get rid of a bunch you can't prove what the vote actually was.
On the other hand there is no real benefit, I could think of. What proof would it be for some citizens to do a recount. In other words..who would listen. There is a Congressman who is currently getting blown off. What clout would a few citizens have?
So...when the litigation is no longer pending, and there is nothing else in the works.... then there absolutely needs to be a citizen recount of at least one problem county, preferably more.
Till then, cost/benefit seems to indicate the wise choice is to hold off.
