Jill stein is the most disgusting person to ever run for president. She should also get her medical license revoked for practicing homeopathy on patients

It definitely raises a standing question, I'd think.

I have no problem with any of the candidates filing. If they want to spend a ton of money to send over some forms, let them do it.

The states should be rejecting the requests and petitions for lack of evidence and dissuade attempts like this from happening in the future. If you don't have a case, don't try to stop the process.

Why the anger? It doesn't cost the taxpayer anything, and if the election was legit the results will be the same.

We should encourage people to look into the system as much as they want to.

Somehow I doubt this would be your response if Trumpski was using a surrogate to pull this waste of time.

True. Its not going to change the fact that Trump will be president and it will just take a few million dollars from some extremely stupid Hillary supporters.

She's certainly adding an air of sleaze to her reputation.

I think her greedy side is just peaking through, she see's a way to make money.

The IRS will probably audit the Green Party in 2 years to see where the money went.

Jill Stein will probably be called to answer.

We're paying for this shite because some shitty candidate that never had a chance says we should. This is ridiculous.

Another way to look at this is that a bunch of liberals are now financially poorer than they were by donating to a lost cause. They get what they deserve.

I would have no problem if Trump asked for recounts. Tweeting out conspiracy theories that the election is rigged on the other hand...

I like how Team Hillary got Jill Stein to sell out like Bernie. Libs and their values and such.

I don't think it would matter, they'd sue anyway. They are traitors trying to usurp the Republic and should be treated as criminals.

i completely disagree. If she got on the ballot, she should be able to ask for a recount.

I loathe jill stein, but I extremely disagree with this. We have had some real whackos run for president.

There were some real pieces of work on the ballot for president in Colorado.

Let's not trash Jill Stein too much. It would be tough to convince me that the Clinton campaign didn't orchestrate the entire thing. Why would Jill Stein and her party waste money on this? What whacko would donate to this effort? There simply has to be more to it

i doubt they did. they gain nothing from this. If the clintons thought they could change the outcome, they would ahve filed their own recount challenge. They didn't.

someone who is angry about the election.

there is. the green party wants to get more votes next time around, thus making a big deal about a recount. Jill stein is seen as a fighter. Win-win-win for jill stein. Lose- lose for everyone else.
