Introduction
Elections are often decided by a few votes. In many cases they are decided by one or two votes out of the several hundred or even several thousand votes that are cast. An election may even end in a tie vote. These circumstances encourage a candidate, typically the one who loses the election, to have all the ballots counted again to assure all legal votes are counted properly, any illegal votes are not counted, and the proper procedures for conducting the election were followed by the election officials.
The process of counting the ballots again is known as a recount. There is no automatic recount. The procedures for requesting and conducting a recount are spelled out in the election laws. A recount is the exclusive remedy to test in court the right of a candidate to hold office based on the number of votes cast at an election.
This manual explains the statutory requirements for requesting a recount, attempts to explain ambiguity in those statutes, expands on the statutory requirements with recommended procedures for conducting a recount, and contains sample forms for use during the recount.
This information is prepared by the Wisconsin Elections Commission pursuant to the requirements of Wis. Stat. §9.01(10). If you have any questions about the recount process, please contact the Commission staff through any of the methods below:

While this guy Wasserman of the Cook Political Report says,
Trump: 1,404,536
Hell: 1,382,011
Trump +22k.

Someone got it wrong.
Republicans NEVER win close votes since Bush v Gore, Rats learned how to keep counting until they win.
I think 22K is enough to not qualify as close enough, unless they have new tricks up their crooked sleeves.
Perhaps this go around, they can remove the votes by dead citizens and illegal immigrants.
Also, one thing I haven't heard addressed, supposedly there are 30-40 million illegal aliens here in the US, and only 3 million voted? I bet the number is a lot higher.
Same campaign meme, Fight On!
You obviously didn’t take the time to read the manual. The process makes it impossible to introduce ballots that weren’t previously counted. They can’t introduce new ballots. As well the likelihood of the counts being off that much using the methods per-scribed are highly unlikely. While it doesn’t prevent fraud to occur it won’t occur on a grand scale, meaning that this is a big fat nothingburger.
Ooooooh

“Of the 750 provisional ballots cast November 8th, the Wisconsin Elections Commission says 618 were because the voter did not have an acceptable photo ID under state law.
While final numbers are not available, the agency says they know 116 were counted, 278 were rejected, and 224 have not had their status updated. The commission also notes a total of 399 provisional ballots were marked as “deadline expired,” which is a indication they were not counted after Election Day.”
Very good news. I had not seen any count of provisionals, assuming that reporter got it right.
Now the only question mark is rejected absentees in Milwaukee.
If laws don’t apply to them, then they don’t apply to us either.
Good luck with all that.
“All they need is a sympathetic judge or judges. Laws mean nothing to the communists.”
We all should be thankful that the last “recount” made the Wisconsin SC Conservative. They will be the gatekeepers here against some $hit ball judge in Milwaukee trying to ovrerturn the election.
>>WI is run by Walker and he knows all the Dem tricks
Everything is run by a handful of judges in today’s America. They let us run things the way we want, but when someone finds a way to push something before one of them, they become a dictator.
And Priebus is tight there.
Wisconsin is not the only place she has to over come, Michigan which is paperless and Trump is up over 12,000 votes already did a recount and Pennsyanlia where Trump is up 68,236 . If that happens there will be a Civil War
If Rotten Clinton had won, the case would have been derisively tossed out of court.
“Basically the recount will be +/- a few hundred votes. Just like it was in Florida in 2000. Except Trump is starting out 22K ahead - not 1K ahead like GWB”
Trump is ahead by 27,257
It never reached a court. Any candidate can request a recall in WI if they provide the funds to cover the costs of such recount. There is no judge involvement.
this whole recount fiasco is a gigantic waste of time and money.....a bunch of lawyers will reap benefits, but no one else will gain anything. The number of popular votes that Hillary had over Trump was roughly the number of illegals who voted in California.
Neither of those counts is necessarily the official count.
Typically, a state finalizes their vote count a few days before naming the state’s electors, which is December 13 this year.
The biggest reason that Wisconsin was picked for a recount is because of the Secretary of State for the State of Wisconsin is Douglas J. La Follette, a notoriously liberal Democrat, who would sell his mother to advance the Progressive cause.
It was easy for Jill Stein to talk him into gearing up for a recount, even though the margin of victory was much greater than necessary to accept a settled result. The whole move is a delaying tactic, to invalidate the slate of electors pledged to Trump.
Is there anyone out there who thinks the Repubs have had anyone watching the computers and vote boxes for the three weeks since the election? While no doubt the Dems have been doing their dirty work behind closed doors. This is outrageously un-American. There is no reason for WI to allow a recount - NONE.
Step 1 - check every car trunk in Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philadelphia.
Step 2 - count all the ballots you find.
Step 3 - call DNC headquarters to ask how many ballots you found.
Step 4 - declare victory.
