   I just read that Georgia needs to recount all votes manually and I wonder what   
   manually is supposed to mean. Do they otherwise use machines? If so, why does   
   it take so long?   
   In Germany, the polling stations close at 18:00 and we usually get the   
   manually counted preliminary results between 22:00 and 23:00 on that same day.   
   And I cannot remember any election where the final results changed noteworthy.   
      
   What happens if multiple recounting two parties/candidates have exactly the   
   same number of votes? Do you hold a second election or flip a coin?
