Source: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Milwaukee County's recount of the presidential election vote tally came to an end Friday, with Democratic President-elect Joe Biden adding 132 votes to his margin of victory over President Donald Trump in Milwaukee County.

In all, Biden gained 257 votes and Trump added 125. The results came Friday evening, seven days after the effort to recount nearly 460,000 ballots cast in the county began at the downtown Wisconsin Center. The final tally totaled 459,723.

Before the recount, Biden had 317,270 votes in Milwaukee County to Trump's 134,357. The recount boosted the totals to 317,527 for Biden and 134,482 for Trump.

[...]

Trump's campaign paid $3 million for the partial recount in the Nov. 3 presidential election, requesting a retallying of the votes only in the state's largest and most liberal counties of Milwaukee and Dane.

The 257 votes for Biden or the 125 vote total for him. Not bad for almost half million votes recounted. I am sure T**** will want to rerun the Wisconsin election over this.

When he ran in the Republican primary and got beat by Ted Cruz in 2016, he said it was a fraud then too and wanted a do over. LOL. I think I see a pattern here.

...Trump is petitioning the notoriously right-wing Wisconsin Supreme Court to simply revoke the certification of the election and order the legislature to directly name (Trump) electors.
