42. OK, here's the state law

State law: http://codes.findlaw.com/pa/title-25-ps-elections-electoral-districts/pa-st-sect-25-3154.html

Here's what I think will be the ultimate relevent clause:

(g)?This subsection relates to recounts and recanvasses ordered by the secretary.

(1)?Except as set forth in subsection (h), the secretary shall order a recount and recanvass to all county boards if the unofficial returns prepared in accordance with subsection (f) reflect any of the following:

(i)?A candidate for a public office which appears on the ballot in every election district in this Commonwealth was defeated by one-half of a percent or less of the votes cast for the office. ?This subclause includes a candidate for retention to a Statewide judicial office.

(ii)?A ballot question appearing on the ballot in every election district in this Commonwealth was approved or rejected by one-half of a percent or less of the votes cast on the question.

(2)?The secretary shall issue an order under clause (1) by five o'clock P. M. of the second Thursday following the day of the election.

(3)?The secretary shall provide twenty-four (24) hours notice of an order under clause (1) to each candidate and to the county chairman of each party or political body affected by the recount and recanvass. ?Notice shall be by press release, the World Wide Web site or other means.

(4)?A candidate affected by the recount and recanvass may be present, in person or by attorney, at the recount and recanvass. ?A party or body affected by the recount and recanvass may send two representatives to the recount and recanvass.

For an automatic recount, she would need to get the margin down to 31,532 - that's .5% of 6.3M+ total votes for president.
