Under Wisconsin election law, because an automatic recount was not triggered, then Stein and/or De La Fuente will have to pay the cost of the vote count.
"For the recount to go forward, one or both of the candidates will have to pay $3,499,689 to the Commission by 4:30 p.m. Tuesday," said Commission Administrator Michael Haas.
The commission noted in a news release that both candidates have been advised of the cost estimate.
A full rundown of the cost estimates for the recount - by county - in Wisconsin is available here .
