A Wisconsin judge has refused to order local officials to conduct the state’s presidential recount by hand.
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein requested the recount last week. She alleged — without evidence — that the state’s voting equipment may have been hacked.
The state Elections Commission has ordered the recount to begin Thursday but rejected Stein’s request that county clerks conduct the recount entirely by hand. Stein filed a lawsuit seeking an order for a statewide hand recount.
Stein’s attorneys argued during a hearing Tuesday evening that the best way to determine if a cyberattack occurred is to check ballots by hand against electronic tabulations from Election Day. State lawyers countered there’s no evidence to suggest any attack took place.
Dane County Circuit Judge Valerie Bailey-Rihn refused to issue the order, saying Stein’s team failed to show any mistakes or irregularities that would bring a machine recount into question.

WASTE OF MONEY…SHE RAISED THE AMOUNT TO 9 MILLION NOW..
SMART JEWISH LADY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE MORONIC LIBERALS
Jill hoped she can count by hand so she can hack it easily . Smart judge
#1 Was not a waste of money. Recounts, shmecounts, her goal was to fill HER OWN pockets. You think she wanted the Devil as POTUS when she accused Hillary of corruption on the highest level and one who wants to start WWIII with Russia as soon as she takes off? Think Stein didn’t know there’s no way in the world The Devil can come back?
This disturbing news of the state to reject a recount will cause Huju, RT, CrazyK, GabolH, and the likes who are desperate for continued lawlessness in the US to go haywire.
oops… as soon as she takes office?
Hope she gets 18 million from those morons
Thankfully, someone still has brains, even if Dr. Stain misplaced her own.
Besides, recalling the Florida recount at the behest of Mr. Global Warming, what would the manual recounters do with those pregnant chads, since Wisconsin allows late term abortion?
