Stick a fork in it. It's done!
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin End Election Recount Efforts
Presidential election recount efforts in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin came to an end on Monday, with both states certifying Donald J. Trump as the winner in contests that helped put him over the top in the Electoral College tally.
Mr. Trump’s victory in Wisconsin was reaffirmed after a statewide vote recount showed him defeating Hillary Clinton by more than 22,000 votes.
In Pennsylvania, a federal judge issued a stinging rejection of a Green Party-backed request to recount paper ballots in that state’s presidential election and scan some counties’ election systems for signs of hacking.
The Green Party candidate, Jill Stein, successfully requested and paid for the Wisconsin recount, but the courts blocked her attempts for similar statewide recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident,” former vice president Biden said during a campaign event in Texas on Monday. "All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”

Whew, the Green Party has been vanquished.
We can relax now.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Well, I guess we won't be able to verify Trump's claim that he won the popular vote. Liberal judges blocked that attempt. I bet Trump is pissed.
