In PA and MI, her petition will have to convince a court.

When Obama struck a conciliatory tone about the incoming Trump administration the other day, I knew something was up.

Watch them find courts that will allow both recounts to proceed.

PA Superior Court is a statewide court and is the only one they can "find." PA law requires the petition be filed with "an appeals court." That means either Superior Court, The Commonwealth Court, or the State Supreme Court. The Commonwealth Court does not deal with voter issues, and the State Supreme Court would not be the first court of appeal.

To order a statewide recount, they must present prima facie evidence of fraud, or evidence that irregularities are so pervasive as to substantively alter the result of the election.
