Stein won approximately one percent of the vote in each of the three states, but local media has reported that she raised over five million US dollars to finance her recount bid, which is 3.5 million dollars more than her campaign fund.

Clinton's campaign admitted that history is not on their side.

Clinton needs to overturn the result in all three states in order to bag enough electoral votes to replace Trump in the White House.

Trump announced victory in the presidential election on Nov. 9, after upsetting rival Clinton in several key states that were traditionally viewed as blue states, including Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

The result sparked anger among thousands of Clinton supporters who staged mass protests across the country, and called for recounts.
