Recounts have changed results in the past...to and from both parties.

Re: "In all recounts of which I have been aware (not that many, since I am not 200+ years old) the result has not changed. Based on past Democratic history, I fear a stolen election."

Recounts do change election results but not very often. There have been too few really close presidential for a recount to effect the outcome. But we may have one this year.

2 of the 3 electoral college tangles in the 19th century resulted in duels. Maybe we should have another duel with pistols, seconds and everything. It would make a great TV special.
