Michigan recount now in doubt; Pennsylvania sets hearing

DETROIT (AP) — Michigan's presidential recount suddenly appears in doubt after a state appeals court said the Green Party candidate's poor showing disqualified her from seeking a second look at the votes.

President-elect Donald Trump narrowly defeated Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in both states and Wisconsin, which started its recount last week.

Here's what's happening in each state and in Nevada, where a partial recount of the race was requested by independent presidential candidate Roque De La Fuente:

Trump had widened his victory margin over Clinton in Wisconsin by 146 votes, with 23 of the state's 72 counties having finished their recounts as of Tuesday.

A recount that started Monday might end after the state appeals court said Stein has no standing to have the votes recounted.

Goldsmith called a hearing for 10:30 a.m. Wednesday to address Schuette's request to set aside the ruling in light of the state court's decision.

Stein's team hasn't produced evidence of hacking, but calls Pennsylvania's election system "a national disgrace."

[...] Tuesday, Pennsylvania election officials updated the state's vote count to show that Trump's lead over Clinton had shrunk to about 44,000 out of more than 6 million votes cast.
