Deadlock: Board vote means Michigan presidential recount may proceedPaul Egan , Detroit Free Press 3:20 p.m. EST December 2, 2016
Michigan's Board of State Canvassers deadlocked 2-2 Friday, on President-elect Donald Trump's objection to Green Party candidate Jill Stein's request for a recount of all presidential ballots cast in Michigan, meaning a hand recount of Michigan's presidential ballots could begin late Tuesday or early Wednesday.
Still, a lawsuit filed Friday by Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette places any recount in doubt. Schuette asked the Michigan Supreme Court, which has a 5-2 majority of Republican nominees, to block the recount as a costly and pointless exercise.
