re: Whatever happened to the "algorithm" issue in the 2020 election?

Shouldn't the vote total on the machines add up to the total paper votes? I know this sounds elementary but if everyone uses the paper ballots and add in a boatload of fake ballots then the numbers won't add up and it would be very difficult to prove that the algorithm fraud actually exists. I have voted absentee since 2002 due to my job so don't know how the vote is done in person in my state (MS).
