3. It is just noise.

Recounts find 75 votes, not over 20,000.

And most times its the person already in the lead.

So much bullshit.

13. Hope all those Trump supporters are looking forward to the inevitable deluge of

grifting, er, fundraising emails that will be arriving any moment now.

"President Trump needs you NOW to protect America against the dark forces of socialism by recounting Wisconsin. We need $100 million NOW and and we noticed that you're one of the President's TOP supporters which is why we're reaching out to you with this special 45X MATCHING OFFER!

Send us $10 with the next HOUR or we might lose the election. What's wrong with you, are you some kind of ASSHOLE? GIVE US YOUR WALLET!"

... or something like that.

[Cha]

22. Yeah, that sounds about right... I got

over 200 texts from all the usual suspects & especially Martha McSally in Az begging for money because of those far left socialists doing dark stuff. She so desperately wanted to "keep AZ red"

They thought I was some guy named "Jerry" and couldn't understand why they hadn't gotten money from him.. they even gave him a "final warning".

I still have to delete 100 tests on my phone from those fascists

Glad that's over.

14. Is it less than .25%

That's the law

Not even going to be close to that

[Roland99]

15. not for WI

Summary of recount laws
The list below shows answers to common questions regarding recounts in Wisconsin.[1]

Does state law require automatic recounts?
No.

When must an automatic recount be completed?
There are no automatic recounts in this state.

Can a recount be requested?
Yes, the recount can be requested within three business days of the county canvass except for presidential election recounts, which must be requested on the first business day following the canvass. The margin required is 40 votes in a race with fewer than 4,000 votes or 1% in a race with more than 4,000 votes. No margin is required to request the recount of a ballot measure. The deadline for completion is within 13 days of the order for the recount.

Who pays for a requested recount?
Varies. The state pays for recounts where the margin is less than 10 votes if 4,000 or fewer votes are cast. For elections where more than 4,000 votes are cast, the margin is less than or equal to 0.25% of the total vote. If the margin is greater than those covered by the state, the requester pays.

Is a refund available for requested recount costs?
Yes. Costs paid by the requester are refunded if the recount changes the election outcome. In the event that a recount does not change the election outcome, a requester might receive a refund if the amount paid was greater than the actual cost of the recount.

Can a partial recount be requested?
Yes.
