According to the Kansas Secretary of State’s Office, abortion opponents provided $119,664 Monday to cover the cost of the recount. The money is used as a bond and returned if the recount changes the outcome of the vote. A crowdfunding page for the recount is still collecting funds, as of Monday only a fraction of the total has been raised.
