An apparent credible history of "recounts" and their results.

Before reading,  the question that is not answered is most important:  In recent times,  the last 60 years or more,  how many recounts "discovered" votes that favored Democrats and were previous "lost?"  All including Gore in Florida.  Now,  this does not mean elections were reversed,  but it does mean the Democrats tried like hell.  They always do.  And this election cycle is no exception ~ editor.

Politico reporter Marc Caputo claimed on MSNBC that recounts rarely reverse the outcome of an election.
“If you look at all of the other recounts that we’ve had, both in Florida – we haven’t had a statewide one in, well, in quite some time – or around the nation, it’s very rare that recounts overturn an election, and it’s even rarer that they overturn elections where the margins is in the thousands and thousands of votes,” he said Nov. 12.
Verdict: True
From 2000 to 2015, 27 statewide general elections were followed by recounts, and only three overturned the outcome. Those three elections had initial victory margins under 500 votes.

Fact Check:
Caputo made the claim in light of outgoing Gov. Rick Scott’s Senate race against Democratic incumbent Sen. Bill Nelson, as well as the Florida gubernatorial election between Democrat Andrew Gillum and Republican Ron DeSantis.
Scott appeared to win on election night, but days later, his 56,000-vote lead narrowed to fewer than 13,000 votes. Gillum conceded to DeSantis, but later retracted his concession as DeSantis’ lead fell from 84,000 votes to roughly 33,000.
Machine recounts were ordered for both races with a deadline of Thursday. The recount only shifted the governor’s race by one vote, and Gillum conceded once again on Saturday. The Senate race is now undergoing a manual recount that must be completed by 12 p.m. Sunday.

No statewide election between 1980 and 2000 had its outcome reversed by a recount. Of the 4,687
