State of the Recount: Michigan halted, hearing in PA, WI 70% complete
In Michigan a ruling from a federal judge has ended any real hope of a complete recount.
A recount that started Monday ended Wednesday night. U.S. District Judge Mark Goldsmith set aside his earlier order that got the recount moving, acting after the state appeals court said Stein doesnt qualify as an aggrieved candidate under Michigan law.
The initial order from Judge Goldsmith promised he would review his decision if there was a ruling from the state court. There was. He did. Its over.
A federal judges ruling that effectively halted Michigans presidential recount after three days assures Republican Donald Trumps narrow victory in the state.
Considering Michigans ruling that districts with even one ballot difference between paper ballots and reported totals couldnt be counted knocked out over 370 districts in the Detroit area alone, its not clear that a recount would have actually addressed any genuine issues.
In Wisconsin the count is 70 percent complete, but it hasnt produced much difference in the outcome.

Is there more to the story in Michigan, or is this accurate? What about in WI and PA? Anyone have other information to share on the recount effort?
