Trump’s margin up after Wisconsin recount over voting machine security

Donald Trump added 131 votes to his winning margin in recount in Wisconsin of ballots cast in the recent U.S. presidential elections. Green Party candidate Jill Stein asked for a recount after doubts were raised that the voting systems can be hacked. Wisconsin uses both optical scan and direct-recording electronic types of voting machines, which are both susceptible to compromise, Stein said in a petition to the Wisconsin Elections Commission. But a significant part of the recount was not by hand, after a court ruled that the decision to count by hand or use automatic tabulating equipment should be left to each county.”]
