“Razor thin”??????

These are not razor thin! Florida in Bush/Gore was “razor thin”, at a difference of 547 votes, or whatever the exact difference was.

Geez, Trump leads by 12,000 votes in Michigan. I don’t think the dems want to go down this road, because of the implications about the accuracy of the voting system in these typically “blue” states. Also, who is going to pay for such recounts? I doubt the tax payers of those states are going to be so excited about spending their tax money on recounts that are not going to change the outcome.

Most states require a recount only if the difference is less than 0.5%. Anything more than that doesn't meet the definition o "razor thin".

I believe that the great state of Michigan in which I reside, will not pay for the recount here.
