    Trump wins Michigan's 16 electoral votes, state board says

    Trump wins Michigan's 16 electoral votes, state board says

    Published November 29, 2016 Associated Press
    President-elect Donald Trump has won Michigan's 16 electoral votes.

    The Board of State Canvassers certified Trump's 10,704-vote victory on Monday, nearly three weeks after the election. The two-tenths of a percentage point margin out of nearly 4.8 million votes is the closest presidential race in Michigan in more than 75 years.

    Trump's win in Michigan gives the Republican 306 electoral votes to Democrat Hillary Clinton's 232.

    Trump is the first Republican presidential nominee to win Michigan since 1988.

    Green Party candidate Jill Stein is expected to ask for a recount. She has until Wednesday. Trump would have seven days to file objections to her request.

    Should he or shouldn't he? I don't know. There's advantages both ways. If he does and the state board approves his request and denies the recount, then it's over. If the board doesn't approve it, then valuable time is wasted starting the recount. If he doesn't and the recount moves ahead, it drags out the story, keeps the drama going, and but lets the losers have their day in the sun only to be shot down again. I think ignore it and let the recounts begin, the story continue, and the outcome be as certain as it can be with regards to Michigan.

    I wonder which way they'll go? I'll support whatever move they make or choose not to make. Doing nothing continues the narrative of the sore losers and enhances suspicions against the Democrats. Even people who voted for Hillary, not the crybabies, but just Democrats who for whatever reason decided to vote their party, are getting fed up with the losers whining.
