Trump wins Michigan, state officials say

“The election was fair and all votes cast by eligible voters were accurately counted”. The recount is not expected to change the state’s victor, and Clinton would not win the White House even if the recount tipped MI alone her way.

It seems unlikely that Stein can produce a recount in Pennsylvania and even more unlikely that a statewide recount will allow Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton to surpass Trump’s 70,638 vote lead in Pennsylvania. Stein has also pledged to file for a recount in MI.

What we have are predictors that if tampering took place, it would be most likely to be discovered in the three states where we are looking, she told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Anderson Cooper 360.

Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Rob Gleason said Stein’s recount effort won’t pan out well.

Wisconsin election officials are requesting a presidential vote recount begin Thursday and finish by noon on December 13th.

As it presently stands, Trump won Wisconsin’s 10 electoral votes on the basis of having received 22,177 more popular votes than Clinton. Wednesday is the deadline to seek a recount in MI.

The Clinton campaign has now joined the recount effort, but there is very little chance it will change the election results.

Miller would not say whether a Trump administration would be willing to investigate either of those claims, but he added, “If so much time and attention is going to be given to recount issues, we’re going to talk about some of the other concerns that are out there”.

Why did Stein have to raise money for the recount? She also assumes $2-3 million in legal fees.

According to Stein’s website, she intends to raise seven million USA dollars for recount costs, and any surplus will be used to “promote voting system reform”.

Stein’s request was denied when the Dane Country judge Valerie Bailey-Rihn said counties would have the final say on whether to count by hand or machine. That leaves it up to each of the state’s 72 counties whether to perform the recount by machine or by hand. Stein intends to challenge the ruling in court.

Trump is the first Republican presidential nominee to win MI since 1988. She claims Wisconsin is placing “exorbitant” and “undue burden (s)” on the recount; Stein promises that it will not stop the effort.

Filing in Pennsylvania three days after she filed a similar request in Wisconsin, Stein’s campaign said she would file a similar request in MI by its deadline on Wednesday.
