They are handled state by state.
And the fact that you don't think the election went "naturally" but offer absolutely no indication of what causes you to think that other than the fact that we lost isn't grounds for a recount of any state's elections at this point.

I swear I'm beginning to think some of these posts were cribbed from things written by Rudy Giuliani four years ago.
