2. All he said was that someone could ask for one |
|
And then he said that this information wasn't provided by either campaign. There won't be a recount.

4. He read MO statute that indicates results within 1% |

gives the runner-up the right to a state funded recount. He's just trying to stir the pot.

He just pointed out that according to MO statute, the "loser" has a right to a recount if the win was less than 1%. He also said that was coming from neither of the campaigns.
This isn't winner take all, so it would be dumb to call for a recount.

6. Who really cares who "wins" Missouri? |
|
Delegates will be split either way. Hillary shouldn't try to look like a sore loser.

11. It wasn't implied or said that she'd ask for one |
|
And she wouldn't, it would be stupid.

8. Doesn't matter for delegates. Might be mandated by law, though. |
|
IIRC this was raised as a possibility in 2006 in the Senate race.

Every election should be.
