re: perceived unfairness of recounts only in Democratic counties.

If the Democrats demanded recounts everywhere, the Republicans would attack them for demanding more recounts.

Since the Democrats asked for recounts where they thought it might make a difference for them, they are attacked for "perceived unfairness". In fact, the Republicans have had three separate opportunities to ask for partial or statewide recounts, and passed on all of them.

I am really upset at this effort to delegitamize manual recounts. They are a legal part of the electoral process that decides close races and the Republican Party never had any objection to them until now.
