it would seem that all the votes that could change the outcome have been counted. Am I wrong??

(44,973 posts)Trump has to ask for one. SOS can also decide to do one, and apparently he decided to do so.

(44,973 posts)Trump can ask for one. Why SOS wants to do it before Trump even asked is not clear to me.

(58,785 posts)currently at 10,353. A few votes are reportedly outstanding, but the AJC doesn't know how many.
A recount is expected, but fwiw Stacey Abrams says it won't change Biden's win in GA.
I'm wondering if that might encourage voters in the senate runoffs in January...!

(31,261 posts)Arizona may end the issue all totally, looks like there is no way Trump catches Biden there, in fact, Biden is more likely to expand his lead.

(44,973 posts)Republican SOS wants to recount even without Trump asking for it.

(10,500 posts)I think they suspected that Vladimir Putin changed the results and wanted to make sure that nobody found out.

(62,269 posts)The invalid ballots (ones marked wrong or which won't scan or can't be 'cured') aren't going to be in the batches they will scan, so the scanning will happen relatively quickly.

(31,261 posts)He can make the rules as he sees fit to help Trump, that is why we should have kept him out of office in 2018.

It's over. Joe maintains the lead.
Statistical
(19,264 posts)Looks like he will just barely (20K to 40K) lose NC. At this point it is just the long wait for all this to certified and official.

(8,695 posts)when does that recount start and its likely to take a week or more once it starts to complete. Looking at the end of November at least
joshcryer
(62,269 posts)The slow part was unpacking the ballots, scanning them, curing them (the ones that didn't scan properly, and have to have their little circles filled in better under two observers).
The ballots that are stacked and retained are all ready to go, they just have to throw them in to the scanners.
I expect the recount will go in a couple of days at most.
