Impending recount of votes in Wisconsin, a scam, Trump says

Republican President-elect Donald Trump has come to the conclusion that the impending recount of votes in Wisconsin is a scam.

The businessman turned politician, who narrowly won the state, said the results “should be respected instead of being challenged or abused”.

Green Party candidate Jill Stein had initiated the recount. She also wants recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania, citing “statistical anomalies”.

Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign has said it would participate in Wisconsin’s recount.
Results would need to be overturned in all three states to alter the outcome of the 8 November presidential election.
