"In a statement, Wisconsin Elections Commission Administrator Michael Haas guessed that the cost and complexity of the recount would be in excess of the state’s last recount in 2011, which carried a price tag of more than $520,000. In that recount over a state Supreme Court seat, the commission had to recount 1.5 million votes — about half the 2.975 million ballot votes that were cast during the 2016 presidential election."

Well, . . . one could feed the homeless.
Or, for around $6-per-bottle one could supply approximately 87,000 winos with the highly rated Thunderbird 'The American Classic' White Wine.
On a more serious note, . . . what if the recount is hacked ?
Oh look! from The Washington Post article cited above: "[Jill] Stein put a note on her Facebook page on Friday, asking supporters 'to consider volunteering to help in the recount process.' ” Yeah, . . . that'll add confidence to the recount.
For what it's worth:
i. DonDiego has no objection to an honest recount of any/all States.
ii. DonDiego recognizes that Ms. Stein's efforts will, in fact, be "successful", . . . as she gets to keep any monies not actually spent towards a recount, . . . perhaps for a future political run.
