Are they saying there was just a counting error of that many votes in the three states that matter to her?

Or are they making accusations of fraud? If so, they should be called to the carpet and forced to substantiate their claims, especially since there is evidence that indicates millions of illegals voted in LA County.

And let's use Hillary/Stein interchangeably. Stein was paid off, of what for, I can't quite figure it out. It's no secret if she had conceded before the election, Hillary would have more than likely gotten her votes and she would have won.

If there is no evidence of hacking or fraud then allowing a recount when the totals are outside of the required threshold is a dangerous precedent as a simple accusation is enough to get that ball rolling. Who is to say that future elections won't use that tactic to delay the outcome?

Are you saying that the secretary of state of whichever state is not obeying their own laws?

They counted the electoral votes needed.
Kept all protests and background anti-Trump noise going.
They lined up their legal team, useful idiots and media enablers.
They got their compliant states lined up.
Paid off the necessary ones.
Picked the right dates.
Set the process in motion.
Portrait of corruption.

I'm surprised Clinton would push this knowing it will likely fail and now you have pissed off Trump. He was going to be nice and let her off. Now sessions is going to spend more time in her than ole bill has in 40 years

Yeah I dont really get this either. Even if her claims are true, wouldn't it be hard to push this all the way through even after she conceded?

I mean not only does Wisconsin need the recount, but Michigan and Pennsylvania would need it too for her to have a chance.

The accessions are more against the Russian government and Trump and Republicans allowing hacking into those computer systems.

They are calling for a general recount.

Thing is Stein is so far behind it doesn't matter.

Simply a money grab and someone trying to make a name for herself and not slide into the land of the unknown.

Taxpayers should be able to send them the bill

This is part of the same effort for which the media has been negative to the point of whipping up riots. The goal is delegitimization of Trumps presidency and the continued fracturing of the populace.

The elites see Trump as someone who could lessen the partisan divide in the country, which partisan divide they use for their own purposes, so they have been working overtime since the primaries to paint Trump as a dangerous right winger.
This has obviously worked, as evidenced by the loony reaction of the common man on the left (the elites, on the other hand, are just pretending to be outraged by Trump).

Now that he won, they are using the riots and these recounts to remove any thoughts of reconciliation that the right might have had.
Is this working? How do you feel about reconciliation now vs how you felt about it on election night?

One state used paper ballots and another's machines weren't connected to the Internet. How were they hacked?

This. In the future whichever party controls Congress simply delays the election results to send the decision to Congress effectively circumventing the election. The law should be: if a recount cannot be completed by the required date, then the election results stand.

Slight thread hijack, if the recount goes beyond the Dec 13 deadline how will they handle this? Or does the supreme court intervene again?

He was never going to let her off. He just doesn't want King fricknutz to pardon her on the way out the door.

I'm kind of surprised that the GOP isn't asking for a recount in NH for both Trump (but especially Ayotte's seat) and using the Dems' treachery as the reason.
