The last time a full state Pres. recount happened was
Kennedy vs. Nixon in 1960. The state was Hawaii.
Kennedy challenged the results and here's how they
resolved the elector deadline vs. recount conflict...
They created a second set of electors in addition to the
first, which had Nixon as victor. The new electors were to
award the votes to whomever won the recount which ended up
being Kennedy -- so it was this second set of electors who went
to D.C on Jan. 12 of 1961.

This 1960 recount did not effect the Pres. results but in 2004,
though a longshot, it just may. Either way, counting all the
votes is a good thing for democracy.
