22. Uh huh...
So far at 11 PM Pacific, the recount shows:
Clinton loses 12 votes
Obama loses 2 votes
Edwards loses 12 votes

Seems that here the machines gave everyone more than they earned.

Notice that if you drop Manchester ward 5, which seemed to have something wacky going on (a total of 141 extra votes split between the top three), you wind up with everyone gaining votes.

Clinton gains 52
Obama gains 37
Edwards gains 26

Looks like here, the machines gave everyone less than they earned, which makes sense since the machines spoil votes more readily than a hand count.

Either way you want to look at it, I'm not seeing your assertion that the machines gave Clinton more...unless you're just using the numbers from Manchester Ward 5, which would be pretty dishonest, especially since everyone got more votes.
