44. Wouldn't each precinct be counted separately?
From the election law link cited above:
"Each application for recount shall separately list each precinct as to which a recount of the votes therein is requested,"

If they are requested & paid for by precinct, would not the count take place by precinct?

I hope the 3% rule is bogus. With "vote-shifting" being a major suspicion, no chances should be taken. And if the decision whether to continue on to a manual recount splits 2/2 by party, guess who will get to cast the deciding vote? (I'm assuming, anyway.)
