Wisconsin recount widens Donald Trump's lead by 131 votes

The recount resulted in a net increase of 837 ballots for a total of 2.976 million. Clinton and Trump added 1,557 votes to their total. The last statewide recount in a 2011 Supreme Court race resulted in a net change of 312 votes for the top two candidates out of 1.5 million ballots cast.

Trump gained 844 votes from the recount and Clinton gained 713 votes. Trump won the state by 22,748 votes.

"Completing this recount was a challenge, but the real winners are the voters," WEC chairman Mark Thomsen said in a statement after signing off on the statewide results. "Based on the recount, they can have confidence that Wisconsin's election results accurately reflect the will of the people, regardless of whether they are counted by hand or by machine."

This is just part of the continuing attempt to delegitmize President Trumps election. Along with the bogus claims by a politizied CIA that Russian Hacks elected him.

Look the only hacks that elected Trump were the hacks in the Democratic party that hate white people.

The other recounts have been shut down, so it's all over.

I remember the unsuccessful attempts to delegitimize Reagan. But this Trump obsession by the left and elitists is astounding. Reagan only had a one front war. Trump has a left and right phalanx.
