Info On Ohio Recount

[righteous1]

Here is just a bit of general information concerning the upcoming Ohio recount. The Ohio SOS has 10 days to prepare and organize the recount post the official recount request.

Aproximately 3% of the votes will be hand counted and then run through the machine. If the totals match or are reasonably close the remaining ballots will be run through the machine. If not they will be hand counted

The cost of the recount above the $113,000 will be bourne by the Ohio taxpayers ~1.5 million


The 93,000 undervotes will be hand counted. Unlike FL. 2000 Ohio has strict rules governing these undervotes. Only 2 fully detached corners or more will be considered a vote. Dimpled chads are not considered votes.


Generally these votes break for the candidates about like the general election. 10% would be the high end of what would likely be considered discernable presidential votes

2 Republicans and 2 Democrats will be at each counting location to monitor the count.
