I made it to page 4 hoping to see an answer to Annee's question, because it's actually a good one, but all anyone could come up with was smug crap slinging.
SO.
Answer the Libertarian, will ya? (That'd be me) I don't know if the RNC or DNC could demand & actually GET a recount if their losing candidate didn't want one. Can they override the candidate and get a recount? Anyone? Bueller? Without the politi-feces in hand?
I believe Clinton would need to challenge the result.
Thanks, UK. I assume the recount odds rest entirely on the recount/don't recount choice of the candidate themselves then? Since we don't have a habit of recounts every election, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the question of who can call a recount was brought up in the first place. Not everyone's a civics whiz, and this stuff isn't exactly talked about much anyway. Calls for recounts are, mechanics generally aren't.
This shouldn't have taken until page 7 to get answered, though, folks.

It's just the request that has to go in by Friday at 4pm.
It looks on based on the money raised for it so far.
All 3 states would need to flip in the recount to change the result, although if they manage to flip 2 states and then get 2 faithless electors to go against the people of the state, that would do it too.

Wow! Can electors "flip" right up until the date they all cast their ballots, which is December 19th?

She has already concede. ....it's done .
Yeah that's not an actual thing. Though I doubt at this point she would ask for a recount unless these folks come up with something super compelling.

Technically, the DNC put up a GREAT candidate. One of the best this country has seen in years (Sanders). It also fielded an ok candidate that was at the least a better choice than Hillary (O'Malley, though I hear he's in the running to be the next head of the DNC). Buuuut the DNC decided to put all of its eggs into the Hillary basket and took the choice away from the people and it cost them the election.

if rioting and bitching can get a fair election over turned, then the other side may see the benefit of burning down 51 capitol buildings and revenge killing the top of society.
Maybe burning 20 or so federal reserve buildings, all the buildings and people on wall street, the NYSE, and every bank within their reach.
Just saying, this is Effing insane.
You people advocating for this have no flipping idea what you are trying to do. No idea what is going to happen and no clue about human nature or your own people.
again, this is EFFING insane.
