RE: Serial Child Sex Abuser Roy Moore Loses in ALABAMA!
Really I thought it was if he had the money he could just do it okay that is interesting.

I checked into it a bit more. I think that you are correct that if Moore can get someone to pay for it then it can be done. But the problem is with statistics and probabilities. With a 1.5% loss, it is just very unlikely that a recount would change the result. So, I stand corrected. As I said, if a race is within half a percentage point after all the votes are tallied, an automatic recount is triggered. But a recount will probably have no effect if the lead is 1.5%. Again, anyone who knows more about this, please add your comments.
Here is an article about it - "Why Roy Moore’s hope for a recount is a very long long shot":

I am not 100% sure. But I think so. Hope others add comments to clarify this if I am wrong.
