President Donald Trump hopes a recount of votes will help keep President-elect Biden out of the White House, but as common as recounts may be, they rarely change the results of U.S. elections and none for a presidential election. Here’s a closer look: reut.rs/38yNRNs 1/9 Image
What is a recount?
In a recount, authorities repeat the process of tallying up votes. They are a relatively common feature of U.S. elections, though rare in presidential contests. States handle recounts differently, but the process mostly comes down to re-tallying the votes 2/9 ImageImage
Can Trump get a recount?
Every state sets its own threshold for when to do a recount. Some require one whenever an election is especially close 3/9 Image

After Biden was declared the next U.S. president, thousands of celebrants massed outside the White House.
