The ballot and the vote are two different things. Only a correctly filled out ballot should be considered a vote. Regardless of how I feel about it, those ballots that people filled out incorrectly where already "enhanced" for the 2nd machine count by an election worker so the machines would read them.

A machine count is at least impartial. A hand count opens the door for fraud.
Another dead giveaway is when the losing candidate only wants recounts of counties in which he or she should be heavily favored.
If you take a look at what Al Gore tried to pull in 2000, there was no way the Supreme Court could allow something that one-sided.
