More States to Be Recounted

The third party candidates David Cobb and Michael Badnarik are seeking recounts in Nevada and New Mexico, too. They are already involved in a recount effort in Ohio.

Why would these guys care about recounting the votes when neither one of them can win? The obvious answer is twofold: first, third party candidates will never thrive if elections are not transparent, given that they have no political power to affect the counting; and second, the free publicity is good for the third parties in general. They might pick up some disgruntled Democrats, for example.
