Judge to hold hearing today on Stein recount lawsuit
A Dane County judge today will hold a hearing on Green Party candidate Jill Stein's lawsuit looking to ensure all 72 Wisconsin counties do a hand recount of their ballots.
Judge Valerie Bailey-Rihn will hold a hearing at 4:30 p.m. today at the Dane County Courthouse.
Stein's lawsuit comes after the state Elections Commission rejected Stein's request to do a hand recount, instead leaving the option for counties to either do that or do the recount by using their voting machines.
