Why the Progressives Want a Recount They Know They Will Lose
Canada Free Press ^ | 12/01/16 | Dr. Robert Owens

If after all the devious machinations Trump still wins this will be used by the Sandernistas and the Clintonites to cry rigged system

The recount in Wisconsin and the coming ones in Michigan and Pennsylvania will not change the outcomes in any of those states.  Even though the party of Mayor Daley, Boss Tweed, and their big city machines are famous for winning recounts by finding bags of votes in candy store basements no recount has ever changed thousands of votes let alone tens of thousands.  I do not believe changing the outcome is the purpose. It is instead changing the perception of it.

I predict that they will demand the recounts are done by hand. This would make them take so long these three pivotal States would not certify their results by the last day possible for directing their Electors how to vote.  If all three states miss the deadline, Trump is at 260, Hillary at 232.  No one hits 270.

I keep hearing this foolish recounts aren’t happening, because of miss deadlines, etc. What is the truth?

The number 270 is not to be found in the 12th Amendment (1804), considering there were not enough EV's to get to 270 at that time.

The person having the greatest Number of VOTES for President, shall be the President, if such number be a of the whole number of Electors appointed;

Below is how it could go to the House.

if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President.

in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice.

People are missing the point. This isn’t about money. It isn’t about legitimacy. It’s about the revolution. The left is using this to whip their useful idiots into a frenzy, destroying society and daring the republicans to do something about it.

This stared with Trayvon Martin. They realized sir skittles can be useful to the cause. Freddy Gray convinced them that the way to destroy civilization was by using the blacks. Obama and the DOJ nurtured it.

There is an election in 2 years. If congress stays in Republican hands and the senate goes filibuster proof republican, and with a conservative SCOTUS, everything liberal wil go away.

This is their last shot.

Precisely

Stated it up thread

They are desperate and will stop at nothing. Everything is at stake. End justifies the means. They are trying to steal it. Only thing that makes sense now.

People running around, pointing out all the hypocrisy. So what. The left doesn’t care about that. Of course they are hypocrites. They don’t care. All they care about is power.

They must be crushed. With extreme prejudice

They are radicals

They love (the radical left) the term Liberal, because it gives their ideology some sort of legitimacy.

If you have ever looked up the term “classical liberal” it is a synonym to American Conservatism.

I don’t think this is right - from what I’ve read (and seen in the Bush/Gore case) if the recounts aren’t done in time the States simply send the electors that were certified after the original count, the Trump electors.

The 1824 example is misleading in that there were no “un-certified” electors, it was just that there were four candidates so no one received the required number to win at the time (131), which threw the contest to the House of Reps.

Doesn’t everybody understand that the real vote fraudsters are the RATS?
