Wisconsin recount: officials admit to double counted votes, wrong color pens, other absurdities

Now that the statewide recount in Wisconsin is underway, it’s still difficult to predict whether the final vote totals will significantly shift to the point of taking the state away from Donald Trump and awarding it to Hillary Clinton. The bulk of the suspicion of cheating is now focused on Waukesha County, which is thus far refusing to do a hand recount. But even so, Wisconsin’s official website is now admitting to a number of initial errors in various other counties – some of them reading like a bad sitcom.

The official Wisconsin election website has posted its latest recount updates as of December 7th. The list, which you can visit by clicking the above blue link, includes some rather stunning admissions. For instance Racine County is admitting that its vote totals have shifted in various precincts during the course of the recount because “Votes were not counted on Election Night due to non-standard pens used to mark ballots.” What does this mean? Did poll workers give voters red pens, or magic markers? But it gets stranger.
