In Wisconsin Biden was leading with more than 20,000 votes over Trump. The Republicans have been trying and trying to find issues so they can do a recount. The only reason they are doing this is becasue they don't want Biden to be there president and that's how it was for a lot of people. Some people want Trump and some want Biden and they may not get what they want and they will have to live with that. Who knows what will happen now that we have a new president he could be good or bad we don't know.
There are a lot of people in this world that are not very happy especially in Wisconsin because they are trying to find issues so they can do a recount, but if they counted right then what they will just have to stay with Biden. In my opinion though I think that if the votes are very close like under 50,000 they should do a recount because with only that many than there could be some issues and miscounts.
Do you think that they should do a recount?
Would you do a recount just becasue you don't like the president?

Jenna,
Your topic choice is good but your sumamry is brief and you didn't reply to any student comment which is worth 30 points. -20 late.
I think all states that think they should do a recount, should be doing a recount. I don't think any states who are unsure of their votes should not do a recount. I don't think not liking the president is a good enough reason to do a recount though. I think recounts should be done if the votes were close or if they are unsure.
I think that they should do a recount because there were a lot of mail-in ballots that went in favor of Biden and at one point in the election Biden had 100% of the mail-in votes. Also, there were more people that voted in Wisconsin than there are registered voters. I would recount weather I did or didn't like the president because it is a big dession.
I think they should do a recount, with a person from both parties watching to make sure the vote is valid and not from a deceased person or such. They are not doing a recount because they don't like Joe Biden, Wisconsin is a Democratic senate run state so they the don't like the fact that their is a recount. They are doing a recount because they know it is necessary.
I think they should recount, because they need to mkae it official and it was a very close race and it seems odd that there was more people voting than registered to vote so that does not make sense. Everyone has a right to request a recount, and it is not that big of deal to recount them to make sure it is correct.
Recounts usually happen in most elections, especially large ones. I'm not sure if there's real concern and evidence to warrant a recount, but the republicans can call for one if they'd like. I think if the number was a lot closer there would be more of a reason for a recount. Fraud and mistakes are very rare as well, and there is no solid evidence for either of these either.
I think they should do a recount to see if they messed up and honestly they should do that with every state just to make sure even tho they have a number and who won. I don't think I would just because i don't like the president i would have more reasoning then just to do it just because. I would think if they messed up then they would have recounted already and may have found different numbers if they did.
