While your main point that the whole "VOTER FRAUD!!1!1!" thing is really annoying, Alton, I think that this recount is not bad. For the voter's sake, at least, considering Republican voter suppression efforts were very active in Wisconsin. I highly doubt this will change anything, but if it does, it will at least re-affirm the voter's rights. Wisconsin is an indicator - if there's no problem here, there's nothing to worry about. If there is, start looking elsewhere.

What does any of this have to do with voter suppression, though?  I assume by "voter suppression" you're referring to Crosscheck and ID laws...but that doesn't really relate to the recount at all.  I agree there's nothing wrong with the recount itself.  But you seem to be suggesting you think there's a compelling reason to believe there might be something suspect going on, based on your belief that Wisconsin would be a leading indicator.  That's the thing I have a problem with.  I don't see a compelling case for that belief.

Then shouldn't you be applauding the recount, because when it comes back that Trump really did win and at most Hillary eats into his margins by a few hundred votes, that puts all this "controversy" to rest?
