@DrCAleaseSmith Well it's because she lost so absolutely that recounts would have clearly been futile. And it was backed up by data ahead of time showing that she would lose. So it would have just been negative for her to go through that whole process just to be told again that she had lost.

I think I heard that she went to Hawaii for a while after the loss, and then she put out a really cringy video admitting defeat and encouraging others to keep fighting or something. It wasn't really clear what the message was.

But then, that's the main quality of her whole campaign, she never really had a solid message the whole time.
