Wisconsin has finished a presidential recount ordered for two Democratic-leaning counties, and Joe Biden is still the winner of the state by more than 20,000 votes. President Trump paid for the recount, which delivered a net gain of 87 votes to Biden.

FILE - Election workers, right, verify ballots as recount observers, left, watch during a Milwaukee hand recount of presidential votes at the Wisconsin Center, Friday, Nov. 20, 2020, in Milwaukee. Wisconsin finished a partial recount of its presidential results on Sunday, Nov. 29, 2020 confirming Democrat Joe Biden's victory over President Donald Trump in the key battleground state. Trump vowed to challenge the outcome in court.

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin finished a recount of its presidential results on Sunday, confirming Democrat Joe Biden’s victory over President Donald Trump in the key battleground state. Trump vowed to challenge the outcome in court even before the recount concluded. Taken together, the two counties barely budged Biden’s winning margin of about 20,600 votes, giving the winner a net gain of 87 votes.“As we have said, the recount only served to reaffirm Joe Biden’s victory in Wisconsin,” Danielle Melfi, who led Biden’s campaign in Wisconsin, said in a statement to The Associated Press.was widely expected to head to court

“The Wisconsin recount is not about finding mistakes in the count, it is about finding people who have voted illegally, and that case will be brought after the recount is over, on Monday or Tuesday,” Trump tweeted on Saturday. “We have found many illegal votes. Stay tuned!”The deadline to certify the vote is Tuesday. Certification is done by the Democratic chair of the Wisconsin Election Commission, which is bipartisan.

Our elections, courts are hopelessly corrupt with fraud. The Constitution is under direct threat of terrorists like ANTIFA. The President Elect to be has been exposed as colluding with China. His son is under 4 federal investigations. One is for child rape. INSURRECTIONACTNOW

gargouille Trump 'says' he paid for the re-count. I don't know? On far too many occasions Trump says he'll pay but he never does. Several states are waiting for him to leave office so they can file they're law suits. I'm going to love watching Trump get sued! After all, that's his game!

realDonaldTrump is such a sore loser. He spent the money and even lost votes! TrumpIsPathetic TrumpIsADisgrace

Forensic audit coming

And the corrupt left didn’t destroy Republican ballots since Election Day, right? Recount is useless.

Siri, show me an example of a bad $3 million investment?

America is so screwed if Biden the ass wins !

AMERICA'S 20 YEARS OLD HISTORY SHALL REPEAT ITSELF! THEN, Al GORE WAS PRESIDENT-ELECT FOR ABOUT 40 DAYS! THEREAFTER U.S SUPREME COURT GAVE IT TO BUSH!

Trump didn’t pay for that, his supporters did.

Recounts are a waste of time. Signature verification and a full audit are what is required. These elections were simply a disgusting orchestration of deliberate cheating.

Again, realDonaldTrump pays, and JoeBiden gains votes. One has to LOVF the poetic Justice of it happening TWICE.

Just stop. There was a NO voter fraud. Maybe democrats should claim fraud. Donald Trump took votes from Joe Biden.

The issue is not the counting of ballots but rather the origin of those ballots

Serves him right!!!

I still believe that re-counting ballots is ‘useless’! Why re-count ‘ILLEGAL’ ballots? Over 10-million ILLEGALS voted Biden via ‘mail-in’ ballots! But by ‘hiding’ these amongst legit ballots makes it easier to ‘steal’ an election! That’s why the Democrats pushed for ‘mail-in’s’!

realDonaldTrump loses BIGLY

How many times does this make that Trump lost the 2020 election?

Seems GOP needed neeratanden to advise them that $3 mil to recount Wisconsin would have been a bad investment before they jumped on the crazy train. $3 mil for 42 votes seems a bit stupid, wouldn't you agree?

Expected nothing less from the Liberally biased AP. I’ll wait for the SCOTUS.

The counting of the vote wasn’t the issue, the audit never happened. Why is the left afraid of audits?

...confidence check Certified electoral process

Joe Biden won Wisconsin again!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼

Let’s see who will be the final winner.

Audit the ballots...

acaldwellwsj 🤣😂🤣

You are amazing press how wonderful you are first to call the election but since it is over and you are fair journalist can you tell us something about Hunter Biden

Biden wins yes

I wonder who the village idiot is, who calls himself “President Trump”?

So the first counting was 'WRONG' right?

At least trump paid for something or so his supporters did

And Trump loses again

Right 😏

My God. Trumpers, how far are willing to go in the hole just to avoid realizing Trump is a con artist and he *took you*?

😅

Recount of illegal ballots ok!! Audit!!

Can’t listen to these people!! They called Biden early on. Keep pushing forward people! AP is shit we all know it!!!

boris3324

They recounted the fraudulent votes agin.... what was the point of the recount of your just going to recount illegal votes? STUPID!

President Sir, save democracy from collapse

A count is different than an investigation.

We know the voting machines were flipping votes from Trump to Biden.

MsMariaT Correction- President Trump’s donors paid for the recount .

Thank you Donald for your payment which found 87 more votes for JoeBiden!

Counting fraudulent ballots changes nothing. BidenCheated2020

baloney. 150,000 spoiled ballots & illegal drop boxes were used. trump will win WISC

Donors? Who believe in him?

Ohh gheez

$3,000,000/87 = $34,482.76 per vote for Biden courtesy of the Trump recounting efforts to ensure accuracy of the votes. Thanks Donald!

Trump just keeps on LOSING! Deserved.

Let's see the audit.

An audit is what needs to be done . Why count the same fraudulent ballots

Trump paid for it, or the taxpayer's? I think they need to be sure, before they do anymore of those, because Trump's too cheap to spend any of his own money. True story

Bullshit

based realDonaldTrump rigging the election giving more votes to biden, $34K per vote.

Fraud Fraud Fraud

Trump didn't pay for anything....

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Trump's the biggest loser in history and I'm here for it.

So it still not the same count as before.

poodlegirl08 I am soooooo shocked... I mean since we are 'rounding the curve' and all. Not that Trump cares or even knows. I cannot recall seeing incompetence like this in the decades I have existed on this planet. 😮😮

Yay we got to see him lose again

parler_app share that detail.

Its time for him to Admit that he lost

Why is VIRUS trump in every headline? He is a deranged, needy, and now irrelevant person. As you repeat every ridiculous conspiracy theory and word he utters,- you are doing more harm in this country. There have to be more important stories to write about. You are complicit!

Fake news

No one owns Trump as hard as Trump owns himself, lol

Now only do ones where there was a real person who cast them.

Dems celebrating preliminary Wisconsin recounts results that include hundreds of thousands of ballots that will soon be thrown out b/c they do not have a WRITTEN REQUEST for the ballot on record as required by Wisconsin law. These unlawful ballots will he challenged this Tuesday

Bullshit need from the AP.

Fraud at its best don’t worry your next

Thanks realDonaldTrump for paying for President Biden win again in Wisconsin which gave him 87 more votes.

A waste of 3million dollars.Not Trumps money, so he doesn’t are.

😂

alexzfinley Donald Trump hasn’t paid for anything in his life.

Wait - aren't those of you squalling for audits the same ones who back in 2016 said 'You lost. Shut up & get over it?'

An instance where Trump’s ignorance can be applauded.

Gotta stop counting illegal votes.

Jaja

no tax payers are paying for recount

Didn’t see that coming, big win bud JoeBiden - you’ll get that ankle back up and running in no time with all this momentum

Hilarious 🤣

trump still wins. His cult paid but he pocketed 60% of the contributions.

Oh my...well...that’s embarrassing

I'm beginning to think trump loves losing. It makes his supporters more sympathetic to him and gives him more money

emptywheel OK. I see.

Trump is a pathological liar. Period.

How many dead n outstation voted

I'm starting to thinkin, TRUMP is no Abe Lincoln

Fraud! Audit it

Counting fake ballots is just counting fake ballots

Trump did not pay for the recount. He scammed the money from his worshippers

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

*** Stock up alert! *** Limited quantity (3). Be safe everyone.

Lol

Dems celebrating preliminary Wisconsin recounts results that include hundreds of thousands of ballots that will soon be thrown out b/c they do not have a WRITTEN REQUEST for the ballot on record as required by Wisconsin law. These unlawful ballots will he challenged this Tuesday

All of us right now:

As a rep voter I am furious at the way Trump will not let go his true colors are showing let's unite as in United States

TheValuesVoter Trump paid $3mil to lose by even more! 😂

This is proof that recounting fraudulent ballots proves nothing but that the fraud stands.

Hahahahahaha

$34483 per vote for Biden in Wisconsin. 3 mill down the drain.🤣🤣🤣

😆

Shameful news coverage. They've set aside thousands of ballots that didnt have a written application associated to them. Trump has Wisconsin.

BIDEN 💪🏼

counting the same corrupt votes doesnt change the fraud!

Waiting for the next spin from the trump campaign now that they lost again. Spin spin spin...

Love that Trump is paying to confirm Biden's winning.

Wait, Trump paid for it, and Biden ended up with more votes?

🤗🤗🤗

trump didn't pay for shit. His idiot supporters paid for it

And how many illegal votes were disqualified?

I love it!!!

😩😩😩

But, did we get paid?

👇 Trump2020

GOP spending millions when all they really need is a Sharpie marker, worked with Hurricane maps

ChurchThatEnters

By my rough calculation, Trump could have paid about $34,000 for each of those Biden voters. He could have instead made a LOT of people happy by gifting them $34,000 to get them thru the pandemic. Trump and Congress are making a lot of people 'un-well' by their lack of action.

realDonaldTrump

I think it's pretty clear to see why Trump went bankrupt all those times.

It what the headline doesn’t tell you is they came up with something like 10,000 disputed votes that will now be litigated. Which was basically the purpose of the recount. So, yeah...

So Many People Are Going To Jail, I Just Hope It Was Worth It All!

Wisconsin election recount update: 45 gets 86’d by 87 Congrats to Biden. Again.

Miriam2626 Is the money from Trump in the bank yet?

nice

Sigue mintiendo .....

LOL no it does not confirm anything. Fraud cannot be recounted.

Thanks to the tRump campaign for making sure every legal vote was counted!

Wisconsin Made Americans Have A Great Day Again! Way to go! Democracy Prevailed.

Womp womp

Hope they made him pay up front. Otherwise...have to take him to court...again.

Wait. People donated because trump said he needed money for a recount. Now they’re saying they wanted an audit, not a recount. So they went in eyes wide open and now want to cry foul because of their self inflicted wounds? 🤷🏾‍♂️

Same people counting the same fraudulent ballots plus 87 more. We need a new crew and throw out fraudulent ballots. If this is not done we lose the United States to communism. All those criminals walk free.

So realDonaldTrump paid $3,000,000 to have a recount that saw JoeBiden’s vote increase by 87. That means trump paid $34,482 per vote to increase Biden’s lead. No wonder the orange wander is in debt up to his ears.

So realDonaldTrump you paid $3 million to recount Wisconsin and Biden gained 87 votes? Not hard to see why you have been bankrupt multiple times.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So....stop me if you've heard this one..... Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania walk into a bar..... DiaperDon is a LOSER

It also revieled 200k+ irregular, possibly illegal, ballots that are goiyto be challenged in court.

ReviewResist Trump's burying himself in loss... I dunno guys I'm here for it...

Joe Biden: Thanks ex-President Trump.... Trump: 😬😬😬

His suit is that some of the votes cast were illegal. The current count means nothing

BIDEN - HARRIS 2020 💙👍

It's 'minuscule.'

Except for the 200,000 ballots put to one side to be contested in court, 19,500 in one county alone from voters that don’t exist and not on voter register, second county will have same or more, these votes will be thrown out as they go against Michigan electoral law.. TRUMP WINS

Money well spent by realDonaldTrump !

Hey, at least you can never say Trump did not support Biden!

BTW let’s get realDonaldTrump campaign to do a recount of the whole state. At 3 million for every 2 counties. 70 more counties to do a recount sooo that would bring in $105 million to the counties! Maybe more states could get in on this action!

Audit...not just recount the same illegal votes!

It should be clear to everyone that the recount was a fraud. That is why I-Am-The-President-Of-The-United-States-And-You're-A-Nobody is asking the courts to order a recount of the recount.

BidenCheated2020

Milwaukee ..... voter fraud

DiaperDon paid $34,500 for each ADDITIONAL vote for Biden. So much winning!!!

Bwaahahaha. Trump was dumb and now dumber.

This is the second recount Trump pays that ends up with more votes for Biden. 🤣

See, this is why he is a brilliant, genius businessman- he knows how to get a great return on his money!

Hey, realDonaldTrump did you see this?

Trump never paid for anything, who is paying the millions of dollars for these recounts and all the frivolous lawsuits ? Suckers & losers,wasn't that what Donald said ?

😝😝😝😝😝😂thanks Trump. Every recount has been in Biden’s favor. Awesomeness ❤️❤️😂😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😂😂😂😂😂😂

another L for trump 😂

Hahahahaha!!! realDonaldTrump is not just a loser! He is a CHRONIC LOSER!!!! Hahahahaha!!! LoserTrump!!!! Hahahahahaaaaa!!!

31 Judges, many trump appointees have said the trump campaigns claims are totally without merit. 31 judges have cited the total and complete lack of credible evidence. 31 court losses. No hope at supreme court, Rule 10. It's clear. trump and his supporters are losers!

I hope Wisconsin got the money upfront.

I hope Biden did not sarcastically thank him. That would be cruel.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Woow Congrats 🎊 JoeBiden and KamalaHarris 🥳🥳🥳🥳even el 🎺 trumpete . paid to make sure you guys are the winners

And simultaneously delivered hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars in donations from oblivious Trumpers. And so, fittingly, the last folks that Trump screws are his very own supporters. Ah, Karma.

Counting fraudulent votes twice isn’t going to change the fraudulent outcome. AUDIT.

realDonaldTrump These are some shrewd investments, Are you going to deduct these from your taxes too?TrumpGrifter FuckTrump TrumpLosesAgain

Computer programs and signatures not checked.

Has he actually paid for it already? Or do they send him the bill?

murray_nyc 87 more votes for Biden. Nice. Trump paid for that. Even nicer. realDonaldTrump Thanks for helping Joe Biden. 🙂

🤣🤣🤣

idiot

I guess we now have to wait for his declaration that the re-count was a fraud as well. BeenThereDonethat

So, he paid over 36K per Biden vote? Solid investment strategy.

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

TrumpIsANationalDisgrace TrumpMeltdown DiaperDonnie

What a waste of money! I'm sure it wasn't CHUMP'S personal money but paid for by his campaign (if it HAS been paid).

realDonaldTrump

Joe Biden and his 80+ million voters thank Trump for the extra votes lmao

BidenCheated

Donald Trump paid $3M to get Joe Biden more votes. That's $34,482 per vote.

bidencheated

He paid for a recount? Yep it's still 2020

How many fraud ballots ?

murray_nyc As Trump has lost again, does that mean that Biden gets to choose another state he didn’t win as a prize? Only fair.

JonLemire Did he really pay? ElPasoTXGov has hired a collection agency to collect fees owed for a campaign rally.

HEY All you Trumpers......send Don all your $$$! I could watch this 5 or 6 more times!! LMFAO!

1. It was only a partial recount. 2. They recounted fraudulent ballots because no audit was performed.

ReCounting the fake ballots doesn’t...count. SC here we come.

Biden won so many times

realDonaldTrump Yo, Donnie! Did you see this? 😂😂😂 Just throw in the towel man, stop embarrassing yourself! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Audit not recount.

Perhaps his minions will finally look at where they're money is being spent. Millions net negative results, pad 45's bank account. Wake up or you are, by definition, a minion.

Have a question! I was told of the the Small print at the bottom of the site to give Trump $$. That it goes for paying off election debts, etc. He has gotten Alot of $$. Where does the Extra $ go after all is paid for Have they even Read this small print Hmmmm

Trump paying for all these recounts. What’s the next state on the campaign list?

JonLemire We won Wisconsin! Again.

realDonaldTrump thank you for your donation!

What an affair! =)))))

Lol trump is gonna go broke helping find all there lost Biden votes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

He's being transparent give him credit. 😁Biden got 87 more votes that he didn't know he had. Thanks to chump.

Perfect! Let’s hope the crybaby goes to bed now! POTUS is an embarrassment
