Overall, over the past eight days:
Including the December 7 results, Trump/Pence are up 495 votes, Clinton/Kaine are up 556 votes, Castle/Bradley are up 20 votes, Johnson/Weld are up 63 votes, Stein/Baraka are up 64 votes, Moorehead/Lilly are up 8 votes, and De la Fuente/Steinberg are up 15 votes.
The Wisconsin Elections Commission reported Thursday, December 8th that more than 82 percent of the vote had been counted by the close of business on Wednesday, and that Democrat Hillary Clinton had gained just 61 votes on Republican Donald Trump.

Two things this confirms
1)toddy is a gullible person, as he was the one hyping this up
2) UM must take administrative action against professor halderman

We need to remain vigilant. At this rate, the recount will erase Trump's lead in just a little over 8 years.

I wonder if the money Jill got from Soros is paying the States for the recount? Or is this just another opportunity to place large amounts of money in a rainy day fund for libs?

While unnecessary, I think this is a net good. With all the talk about the integrity of the election, it's good to see an example of accuracy upon extensive reexamination.

I will say this: while the net change is small, candidates getting 500/600 more votes than when first counted is unacceptable. How hard is it to count this stuff correctly the first time?
Maybe we shouldn't have geezers being the ones counting them. It's always geezers in the pics I see.

Is it hand counted? If so, it is near impossible to get the exact recount totals regardless of how many times you do it.

Whoever is in charge of Russian cyber warfare is going to have some answering to do... to Putin.
Only 61 votes?

Varies by state, but I would assume they don't bother with "undervotes" unless a recount is necessary, the assumption being that undervotes will be proportional to the counted votes and will wash out.
The ratio is consistent here, so that seems to make sense.

In addition, there is measurment in almost all instruments. So if they are off by a total of say 1600 votes (less for the margins) then that is 99.95% accurate.
Perfection is the ideal, but that is very accurate.

True, this election has restored my faith in the election process.
As long as the votes count, then you can win with ideas. It's possible to change minds, but overcoming a truly rigged system is much tougher.

I'll regain my faith when you have to show an ID card stating you are a US citizen on it to vote.
