Ready, set, recount

President Trump’s Wisconsin recount request came hand-delivered to the state Elections Commission Wednesday, replete with his signature and a $3 million payment.

Recounting starts Friday in Milwaukee and Dane County.

The Trump campaign claims the state Elections Commission directed municipal clerks to illegally alter incomplete absentee ballots and that Democratic county clerks told voters to illegally mischaracterize that they were indefinitely confined to circumvent Wisconsin’s voter ID law.

Milwaukee County Clerk George Christenson says those claims are false.
