You've got to watch these bastiges every single minute.
The encouraging news is, Jim Troupis who pretty much wrote the Wisconsind Recount book has a lot of experience working with the county clerks and has high confidence in them, regardless of party affiliation. And the procedure has been carefully scrutinized and improved after the first statewide recount a few years ago.
This, in effect, means kids from UW-Madison - a bastion of the Leftist/hillary fantasy.
who probably have difficulty “counting”...
But, good folks are on the job and watching everything very closely.
Dane County was overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton, so if anyone benefitted from “irregularities” there...
Oh look, there are boxes of uncounted ballots in the closet and they are all for Hillary. What were the chances?
Pray America woke
whatever could go wrong with this? /s
“Recount workers could earn $20 an hour, maybe more, on 12-hour shifts”

I’d count real slow and stretch the gig out for a year at that pay.
I listened to the interview with him yesterday and he put me at ease a bit over the procedures and the fact that he praised the clerks as they take their job seriously.
Temp workers are not accountable maintaining the integrity of a recount. They will create more problems with counting errors and can be instructed to game the count.
The old saying generally attributed to Stalin keeps coming to mind: "The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."
The judge did not mandate hand counts, but did encourage them.
In Texas, there would have to be equal numbers of Republican and Democrat recount workers.
I believe every vote recounted must be verified by a member of each Party.
“The judge did not mandate hand counts, but did encourage them”
The WI Election folks nixed Stein’s call for a hand recount, did they not? Stein then sued to overturn that decision and the Judge who heard her complaint threw it out.
Am I correct then in assuming Stein LOST her bid too force a hand recount?
He would not force hand counts, but did encourage them. Said both that the law did not give her the right, but also that hand counting was inherently the best way to recount.
I wonder if part of the plan is to flip Stein votes to Clinton. Of course, Stein will not object even if all of her votes are flipped.
Clinton must have some such tricks up her sleeve to go to these lengths in what looks like an obvious lost cause.
...”I believe every vote recounted must be verified by a member of each Party.”...
What rational person does not believe that this is an open attempt at FRAUD. The left has gotten away with lawlessness for the past 8 years and they think they can continue without reservation. I believe that this nation is fed up with these political criminals, who are getting rich while trying to upend our system without any proof. That would be like accusing someone of murder without any proof that murder took place. Personally, I am beginning to despise these people.
I worked a recount in a congressional race 6 years ago. We were divided into tables of 3. Each table had a leader from one of the parties the. The odd numbered tables have leaders of one party, and the even numbered tables have a leader from the other party. There are then 2 workers one from each party at each table. Then there are observers from various intersted parties looking over each table. There were some from the candidates, RNC, DNC, House Republican and Democratic caucuses, etc. There is a strict limit of observers allowed in the counting room. The number can’t exceed the number of workers. Towards the end as tables get shut down inpairs, observers must leave the room to keep the balance.
It was while talking to one of the Republican congressional staffers that I found out that if the election night results prevailed, our new congressman would get the old congressman’s office, because the lottery had already assigned all the other freshmen congtlressmen’s offices. As the Republican candidate beat the most senior House Democrat, he got an excellent office with a view of the Capitol from the window. The outgoing congressman’s staff was just as petty as the outgoing Clinton Whitehouse staff in 2001. Real sore losers.
