UPDATE: MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The Latest on Wisconsin presidential recount (all times local):
Wisconsin election officials estimate it will cost nearly $3.5 million to conduct a presidential recount in the state.
Jill Stein says she plans to ask a Madison judge to order that election officials conduct a presidential recount in Wisconsin by hand.
The Green Party presidential candidate requested a recount on Friday. The request calls for local election officials to conduct the recount by hand rather than using tabulating equipment to see if any evidence of a cyberattack exists.
The state Elections Commission must grant the recount request but on Monday refused to order that the counting be done by hand. The commission's decision came after staff recommended sticking with a state law that allows county clerks to decide whether to count by hand or use machines.
Stein issued a news release saying she plans to ask a Dane County judge to order clerks to conduct the recount exclusively by hand.
Legal counsel for Hillary Clinton's campaign announcing Saturday they will take part in recount efforts by Green Party candidate Jill Stein.
Stein has raised upwards of $4 million to seek out vote recounts in 3 key states, beginning in Wisconsin.
Clinton's legal counsel, Mark Elias said on a post on Medium, that the campaign had received hundreds of requests for the campaign to seek recounts in close states.
The campaign says they've been investigating and have found no evidence of hacking of voting systems. Clinton's teams said they investigated every theory presented and examined laws and practices pertaining to recounts, contests and audits.
