      NOTE: From my read of PA election law, there is NO possibility of a mandatory recount in the #PA18 race. The only mandatory recounts in PA are for statewide candidates and issues.

      Others' tweets appear to confirm my conclusion on mandatory recounts. Here's the only mandatory recount provision I've found: http://codes.findlaw.com/pa/title-25-ps-elections-electoral-districts/pa-st-sect-25-3154.html …pic.twitter.com/buLN9Jqayt

          Here's a thread from a PA lawyer with significant in-state election law experience on where things go beyond that:https://twitter.com/adambonin/status/973737779996844032 …

          If I have to, I'll explain. Promise. But the first important thing to know is that this is not a count tonight; it's unofficial and does not include absentee or provisional ballots. The formal count begins Friday, & overseas/military absentees have until next Tues to come in. https://twitter.com/Redistrict/status/973737120824283136 …

          [tl;dr: There's a reason why I'd not said what I found (in my preliminary review) beyond the mandatory recount rules. It's complicated, and I am not an expert on it! As always, listen to experts first!]

          Replying to @chrisgeidner

          3 voters in a precinct (aka election district) can request a recount of their no paper trail machines. County election boards can order a recount, too, which may be more relevant for absentee and provisional paper ballots

          Curious what happens in an election contest for Congress in PA? By statute, it goes to court of common pleas where winner resides; PA statutes provide detailed instructions for court on how to resolve case. (Congress would eventually have final say) #PA18 #PAspecialelection
