(FOX 9) - President Donald Trump’s campaign manager Bill Stepien said Wednesday the president plans to “immediately” request a recount in Wisconsin, where the race remains close.
In Wisconsin, a candidate can request a recount if the race is within 1 percentage point.
“The President is well within the threshold to request a recount and we will immediately do so,” Stepien said in a statement.
Biden currently leads Trump by a razor-thin margin in Wisconsin, although ballots are still being counted. Wisconsin has 10 electoral votes up for grabs.
