Why haven't the Repuke Senate candidates requested recounts in Michigan & Wisconsin?

Total radio silence. But mtg is screaming for a recount in California. Why don't they want a recount in these 2 swing states? Seems quite out of character for the party.
Here's the post on Reddit:

Republican Senate candidates in WI/MI not calling for a recount is suspicious

Senate seats in key battleground states where Kamala lost, were won by Democrats by thin margins.

Michigan: Elissa Slotkin (48.6%) vs Mike Rodgers (48.3%). A difference of 20,217 votes.

Wisconsin: Tammy Baldwin (49.4%) vs Eric Hovde (48.5%). A difference of 29,116 votes.

Two key swing states with close margins, yet there hasn’t been an official request to recount from the Republican side. If this were 2020, I know there would have already been a push to recount. Why haven’t they requested a recount? Why the radio silence from Republicans on these two seats?

And one interesting reply:

MTG noticed in California that the seat flipped from Republican to Democrat by 50 votes and was immediately saying that the Democrats were cheating without any evidence. But Cali isn't a swing state. Wisconsin and Michigan are. Maybe they're thinking that it's safer to recount Cali than Wisconsin and Michigan because that would lead to more suspicion around Trump's win in those states?? Even Elonia Musk retweeted about MTGs claims with a "🤔" and that was it.

1. You're not the only one wondering about that. n/t

2. Probably because it would be premature.

In Michigan, recounts can be requested after the post-election canvass is completed. My understanding is that it has been completed yet. Moreover, there is a threshold showing that needs to be met:

A candidate for an office canvassed by the board of state canvassers, including the offices of U.S. Senator or U.S. Representative, as well as all state legislative offices may petition the board of state canvassers for a recount of the votes. The petition must allege that the candidate is “aggrieved on account of fraud or mistake in the canvass of the votes by the inspectors of election or the returns...” and that the candidate is "able to allege a good-faith belief that but for fraud or mistake, the candidate would have had a reasonable chance of winning the election.” Mich. Comp. Laws § 168.879(1).

Similarly, in Wisconsin, a vote margin greater than 0.25% but less than 1% entitles a candidate to a recount that the candidate would pay for. The petitioner must file their verified petition with the proper clerk no earlier than the completion of the canvass and no later than 5 p.m. on the third business day after the last meeting day of the board of canvassers determining the election for the contest in question. Wis. Stat. Ann. § 9.01(1)(a)1; see also Wis. Stat. Ann. § 9.01(1)(a)1.

3. They don't want to, possibly, upset the apple cart with a recount.

4. See post # 2. It is too early for a recount request to be made in either state.
