https://www.abc15.com/news/election-2020/arizona-secretary-of-state-we-wont-need-to-recount-presidential-resultsPHOENIX As the margin between Joe Biden and President Trump tightens in the Arizona presidential election race, Secretary of State Katie Hobbs ruled out the possibility there will be a recount.
Under Arizona law, an election has to be decided by 200 votes or less, or one-tenth of one percent of the votes cast, whichever is the smaller number. No one is predicting either candidate will lose by 200 votes or less.

That is a mathematically very small chance of a recount.

Plus, the experts' analysis of the data shows no chance Trump will gain 16k votes from the remaining ballots which are almost all in Dem-friendly areas.

(33,643 posts)4. I'm quite sure she would not have 'ruled it out'.
And if there was no chance of Trump catching up per 'experts' this race would be called.
Not a big deal, but it's not 'no chance'.
Edit: No picking on you, I'm picking on the poorly written article.
