Reply #49: recounts almost certainly will be at the county's tabulation center

[read the law first]

It seems like in most states (I have to admit that I don't know about Ohio) the recounts are conducted at the county tabulation center where the count took place on election night and most often using the same equipment (which is why we keep saying "what's the value in simply downloading the same corrupted data a second time?").

Strangely, there is almost always movement of a few votes one way or the other ( a candidate will lose a vote or two or gain a vote or two) and nobody has ever been able to figure out why.

It usually moves faster than election night because you don't have to recreate the travel from the precinct to the tabulation center (of course, the hand counts will take longer because hand counting most likely was not done on election night). I doubt that they will duplicate the examination of the provisionals though and will probably just feed the ones accepted through the machines.
