2. This doesn't mean all contested results are finished and resolved.

Furthermore, .the number is not .0075% but is actually approximately 2.97%: .1053/(700.47-696.92).

You could even argue, though I will not, that the error was 6.4%: (.1053 + .122)/(700.47-696.92)

Is it your implication by your words "the costly and time-consuming recount" that this recount (which has not been confirmed as completed) was a waste?
