Recount is Under Way in Michigan

    The 2016 election recount effort is shifting to Michigan and Pennsylvania.

    FOX’s Tonya J. Powers has more:

    The Presidential recount requested by Green Party candidate Jill Stein continues in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

    In Michigan, a hand recount has been ordered by a federal judge and is expanding to its largest county, which includes Detroit and five other counties too. The push for a recount in Pennsylvania is awaiting action in federal court.

    President-elect Donald Trump narrowly defeated Democrat Hillary Clinton in all three states. Stein, who got about one percent of the vote in all those states, says her intent is to verify the accuracy of the vote.

    The recounts were not expected to change enough votes to overturn the result of the election.
