re: Pennsylvania deadline missed

She is using another mechanism available under Pennsylvania law - Suing the State claiming Massive Voter Fraud.

quote:

---

The third way a recount can occur is if a candidate files in court and can present evidence showing there’s a probability of widespread voter fraud in the state — enough that the court would deem the state’s election results compromised. That appears to be the route Stein is taking now.

Highly respected and totally sane person files suit

Bummer. No new accounts allowed at this time.

Pfft. I was gonna have fun

1. What are they charging millions for?

3. It was a Jill Stein fundraiser/Money might get used for a recount fundraiser.

Desperate people donated because it was better than doing nothing and laying down and accepting the results. If only Hillary Clinton had the money to get lawyers to get proper audits....

10. Well they cannot say it costs too much. Jill has the money to pay for a hand recount.

Why not have a hand recount Wisconsin election committee?

This makes no sense.

27. They are always hiding the actual ballots.

Why?

I say mandatory recounts every year. But, I've been saying it since DU started.

2. If I remember right, the Election Commission was recently jiggered by Walker's minions.

Can't remember the details, but it's been tampered with to favor the repubs.

21. The commision chairmain is a Democrat and it's 3 Democrats and 3 Republicans

The decision was unanimous. It was rejected because it's exceptionally unlikely to change anything.

5. hey if she is paying for a hand recount why not have a hand recount?

Why do these election commissions do everything half way? Why not have a complete recount? It is not costing them any money.

7. Exactly. And why was it a unanimous decision by the commission? Not one patriot.

11. Why does the commission decide to do an improper recount?

This isn't really a full transparent recount!

25. The decision makes sense given the concerns are with electronic voting, not paper

Ask for a hand recount of paper ballots when you claim the electronic voting machines are the problem is like insisting they replace your car stereo when the airbag is recalled.

20. I'd guess it's in the works...

Portage county will recount by hand.

That might be interesting.

24. Yes, she's going to sue

Madison — The Wisconsin Elections Commission set a timetable Monday for a recount of the presidential election but rejected a request to conduct it by hand made by Green Party candidate Jill Stein, who quickly responded that she would sue.

12. This is all the Wisconsin recount law provides for

I posted that last week. I felt from the beginning that anyone who donated was being suckered by Stein. It was in black-and-white in the WI recount provisions law. You should be mad at Stein more than Wisconsin: she led you to believe there would be a hand recount by some independent group, when all there ever was was a provision for a county-by-county check by the same election officials who did it the first time.

14. This is the fault of the WI election committee. WI can perform a full hand recount.Illegality Hidden

The Wisconsin Elections Commission has denied a request by Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein for a hand recount of all ballots.

They do not want a full transparent recount.

17. I posted this last week

when everyone was donating, thinking Stein would get a hand recount. That was before the election commission met:

For state and federal elections, the county boards of canvassers for the counties in which the contested votes are cast conduct the recount. The Wisconsin Elections Commission recommends that the board of canvassers be composed of the same people who initially canvassed the election results.

Do the recount by hand. If you really want transparency!

OH my side!

Poor Hilldog is broke again

I have posted the offcial WI link here many times. WI does an audit by their statute automatically and it is going well.

Crooked and Jill look like complete fools with all of this.

I was coming here to post that I bet this pathetic prog is now going to sue the state, thus costing her enemies (producers/tax payers) more money.

What a pathetic winch.

Guys, if you send more $$ we can totally get this recount.

What is the donation amount up to again? Jill Stein about to get paid off the stupidity of democrat voters everywhere...

FOX just said 6.2

More than she raised in the past 2 presidential cycles
