Coworker Said Recount Completed in NH?
... he swears he saw this on "the news" as he was leaving for work this afternoon and that he usually watches CNN or ABC.

Now, I can't find the story anywhere. According to him the recount was completed and Obama and Hillary tied for 37%.

This seems akin to the post that said that the recount was completed and Kucinich got 3%.

Since the recounts took so long in '04 and as far as I understand it the money that Kucinich will have to pay for a recount has not been raised yet...

Has anyone else actually heard rumors that the recount was complete?

1. Can't be. Olbermann was talking about Kucinich being granted the right to have a recount but he
has to pay for it. He's raising money to try to get the money to pay for it.

5. Dat's what I thought.
I mean, that would have to be one of the fastest and cheapest recounts I've ever seen...

Thanks. I'm just wondering how pervasive the rumors are. Perhaps what he actually heard was a poll for another one of the battleground states?
