Someone thought there was, but others with the maths say the irregularities aren't there.
Whenever I repaired devices with tamper proof stickers part of the repair process was to replace those stickers so the warranty would continue to be valid. I would expect a machine to be used for counting votes to have a strict chain of custody and for tamper detection mechanisms to be maintained, if they aren't then this recount exercise could at least have some benefit in highlighting some areas of improvement.
But hacking the vote by hacking individual vote counting devices would be nearly useless so unlikely that it's nothing more than stickers not being replaced when serviced.
