“I said this from day one that these numbers were not going to change much at all and that’s exactly what happened.” Dane County Clerk Scott McDonell said.
The disqualified votes were those that were missing voter or witness signatures or addresses, according to the Dane County Clerk.
Dane County election officials finished recounting ballots Saturday night after eight days of counting. County clerk Scott McDonell said they still needed to meet Sunday to reconcile some precinct information and get their data ready for certification.
The entire recount process in Dane County had been open to the public and livestreamed online.
“The only difference is it was frustrating in the middle of a pandemic (when) the hospital rooms in Dane County are full, to create potentially more problems with the COVID crisis when you know this was going to happen,” McDonell said.
McDonell said that there was no evidence of voter fraud.
The Milwaukee County Board of Elections certified its election results Friday evening. President-elect Biden’s lead increased by 132 votes after Milwaukee County election officials recounted more than 450,000 votes.
On Friday, Milwaukee County certified their results showing a +132 net for Biden.
In other words, the overall recount of the state resulted in an 87 additional votes for Biden.
The Trump campaign paid $3 Million to make the recount happen, or roughly 34K per vote Biden gained
