Wisconsin has completed a recount of the ballots from the 2020 US Election and it's found more votes for Joe Biden.
The recount has confirmed the Democratic candidate and now President-elect was the winner of the state, with ballot counters discovering an extra 87 votes for him.
It's a massive blow for Donald Trump, especially considering he forked out $3 million to pay for the recount to happen.

The money paid by Trump was first confirmed by the Wisconsin Electoral Commission back on 18 November when they tweeted: "The Wisconsin Elections Commission has received a wire transfer from the Trump campaign for $3 million.
"No petition has been received yet, but the Trump campaign has told WEC staff one will be filed today. We have no further information at this time."
The Trump campaign was hoping a recount would overturn Biden's slim 22,500 lead, however it's come back to bite him.

Since the results started to come in, the 45th President of the United States has been adamantly - and falsely - claiming the election had been 'stolen' and that there was widespread voter fraud.
So far, that argument has only resulted in challenges being rejected by courts and recounts proving that Biden had, in fact, won fair and square.
That means that on January 20, Trump will have to pack his bags and vacate the White House whether he likes it or not.
Speaking to Forbes, Biden campaign spokesperson Mike Gwin said: "Once more, Donald Trump's debunked claims of widespread voter fraud utterly fail to withstand scrutiny - just like they haven't held up in court in the over 35 cases they've lost since Election Day."

In addition, Milwaukee county clerk George Christenson said: "The recount demonstrates what we already know: that elections in Milwaukee county are fair, transparent, accurate and secure."
However, this latest defeat is unlikely to weaken Trump's resolve to challenge the election result.
On Saturday night after a three judge panel dismissed his appeal against the results in Pennsylvania, the POTUS tweeted: "The 1,126,940 votes were created out of thin air. I won Pennsylvania by a lot, perhaps more than anyone will ever know."

However, Judge Stephanos Bibas, speaking for the three-judge panel, argued: "Free, fair elections are the lifeblood of our democracy.
"Charges of unfairness are serious, but calling an election unfair does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here."
Despite his continual cries of fraud and cheating, Trump says he will leave the White House when the electoral college confirms Joe Biden as the winner.
He still believes (without concrete evidence) that the election was rigged, however when he was asked whether he is ready to grant Biden a peaceful transition of power, he didn't mince his words.

"Certainly I will. And you know that," he said.
"But I think that there will be a lot of things happening between now and the 20th of January. A lot of things. Massive fraud has been found. We're like a third world country."
