4. Are you sure about the 3%?
That's the method in New Hampshire, but the Ohio Revised Code says nothing about it.

Also, chads detached at two or more corners will be counted:

Ohio Revised Code § 3515.04. Procedure for recount; stopping recount.

At the time and place fixed for making a recount, the board of elections, in the presence of all witnesses who may be in attendance, shall open the sealed containers containing the ballots to be recounted, and shall recount them. If a county used punch card ballots and if a chad is attached to a punch card ballot by three or four corners, the voter shall be deemed by the board not to have recorded a candidate, question, or issue choice at the particular position on the ballot, and a vote shall not be counted at that particular position on the ballot in the recount. Ballots shall be handled only by the members of the board or by the director or other employees of the board. . . .



By the way, did you ever find that link for the recount totals in New Hampshire?
