>>Bit of a shame, because according to at least one analysis there was a mathematically valid justification for a recount:

1) I can't find validation of their findings of 7% more votes for Trump where there are voting machines.

2) Assuming it's accurate, it's still a deductive fallacy until you eliminate proper explanations for voting patterns. For example, where and why are machines used vs paper? That could provide an explanation by itself.

No matter: recount is demanded and so far it suggests that the Russian hackers preferred HRC over Trump, stealing 15,000 votes for her in Milwaukee alone. Perhaps it's actually easier to hack the paper votes than the machines which is why the machines reflect a more honest match to the audit = 7% more for Trump. In any case, conspiracy theorists can breathe a sigh of relief that the Commies were thwarted in their dastardly plan. Also, popular vote protesters might consider how many votes the Ruskies stole for HRC in their own states to deny Trump the popular vote that would have prevented rioting protest.
