Formula for counting cells with a specific date

SConsulting

The sheet is set up to fill in the create date for a ticket logged from a form. I need to count how many were opened each day and used the below formula for each date but the count says zero when there are line items for that date.

=COUNTIF({TJ Regional Health eService Range 6}, "08/01/22")

When I hover over the date in the cell it reads Monday, August 1st, 2022 so I also tried the below formula which did not work.

=COUNTIF({TJ Regional Health eService Range 6}, "Monday, August 1, 2022")

=COUNTIFS({TJ Regional Health eService Range 6}, =DATE(2022, 8, 1))

Dates can be funny. Smartsheet will look for text when you have "date" so if the cell is a text cell with 8/1/2022 it will count it. But with date cells I typically go with DATE() to avoid any confusion
