WISCONSIN -- You can close the book on the 2016 Presidential election in Wisconsin. After rumors of widespread voter fraud, hacking and the like, no such malfeasance came to light and Donald Trump retained most of the 22,000 election-night vote margin over Hillary Clinton.

According to an early Washington Post report, Trump picked up a net 162 votes as a result of the recount that the Wisconsin Elections Commission certified Monday. Green Party candidate Jill Stein requested and paid for the recount that began Dec. 1.
