Before the Trump-Harris election, here are the recount laws in 7 crucial swing states.


The 2024 election is expected to be very close, with potential recounts in key states playing a significant role in determining the outcome. Recount rules vary from state to state, with Arizona requiring an automatic recount if the margin is less than 0.5%. Georgia allows candidates to request a recount if the margin is within 0.5 percentage points. Michigan provides for automatic recounts if the margin of victory is within 2,000 votes, or candidates can request one if they believe there was fraud or mistake. Nevada does not have automatic recounts but allows candidates to request one at their own expense. North Carolina allows a recount if the margin of victory is within 0.5% or 10,000 votes. Pennsylvania triggers a recount if the margin is within 0.5% or if three voters request one due to alleged fraud or error in a specific precinct. Wisconsin allows candidates to request a recount at their own expense if the margin of victory is larger than 0.25 percentage points. In 2020, recounts were requested in several key battleground states, but none changed the outcome. Ahead of Election Day, it is important to be aware of the recount rules in each state to ensure a fair and accurate election process.
