Eh, completely unpreventable things such as bit flips have caused weird things in an election before, so it’s not exactly unreasonable to call for a recount when the margin is so small.
Obviously it’s incredibly unlikely to change though, and is a perfect example of why individual votes do matter.
Some states require, or at least allow, a recount when the margin is a single-digit percentage, let alone 1 single vote.
This election clearly deserves a recount.
LOL, could there be a better example?! Right with you.
