12. With so many bodies they're bound to forget where a few are buried

so to speak. They clearly weren't expecting Hillary to ask for any recounts, and had their talking points primed in case she made noises in that direction, and of course she wouldn't, and the rules make it impossible for just about anyone else to. And since Stein did even worse than she'd been polling, as they appear to have swiped half her votes, they no doubt expected her to dissolve in shame, too. But she surprised everybody and now they're scrambling to cover their asses and shut her down with injunctions so all things considered I'd rate the chances of a dramatic peripety before the 19th at about 50/50.
