Don’t the Secretaries of State in MI and WI have the authority to reject Steins recount request, based on her lack of standing to request one?

They could cite the fact that she has no chance to change her own vote count and no chance to win!

They ought to say that just because you were on the ballot doesn’t give you an automatic right to a recount even if you can pay! Tell her to take it to the state courts if she wants a recount. Tell her they will only honor recount requests from Trump or Clinton - the only candidates with standing.

I know PA is different in that a candidate has to go to the state courts if they want a recount (other than an automatic recount) after presenting evidence gathered at county level of fraud or other irregularities. Challenging a state wide election or getting a statewide recount done in PA is nearly impossible unless the vote difference is below the level for a statewide auto recount (1/2 of 1 percent). Trump won PA by 1.2%.

Also at least one Rat election lawyer in PA says this recount is bogus and that Trump legitimately won PA -,had something been afoot in PA he and his fellow Rat lawyers would have already been challenging the results.

Bush's initial margin of victory in 2000 was only around 2,000 votes. Franken's deficit in 2008 was around 250 votes. And Franken's race hinged on less than 1,000 rejected absentee ballots -- which are a very small portion of the votes in an election. You also had 15% of the vote in that election going to a third-party candidate.

There's a huge difference between recounting enough votes to make up these margins, than coming up with more than 100,000 votes in three different states.

A neutered Supreme Court will actually help Trump. All three of these close states have Republican legislatures, and two of them have Republican governors. The states will all certify Trump as the winner before it ever gets to a Supreme Court case.

Clinton conceded in this election faster than Kerry did in 2004. That tells you everything you need to know, especially when you consider how deranged and pathologically focused Clinton has been on winning the White House.

In ballot tampering there is a ranking of what is easiest.
Especially in this election there is an undervote. Many who voted for Senator and local pols voted for None-of-the-Above for president, an undervote. In changing vote totals, these are the first to go to the candidate of the crooked bureaucrat.

Second to go are the votes of the 3d party candidates. They know they are going to lose anyway. And they lack resources. So they are not likely to challenge the results. And they have little or no infrastructure of county organizations to rely on to actually make it happen. Most of these 3d party votes are protest votes from people who would have voted for the major party candidate if they were just a little more informed. So these are choice votes to flip and the major party counters can justify their actions to their own conscience.

Although changes of votes for major candidates provide the incentive that they count as 2 votes the major parties have the infrastructure and resources to catch and challenge bad vote counts. So these happen least often.

At least that is the Illinois way.

That last part says precisely why this is happening.

The Green party did the same thing in 2004 for a recount in Ohio. The Cobb-LaMarche campaign

It would have been much easier to pursue this course of action if she had never conceded in the first place.

It's time to climb off the ledge, folks.

She’d do well to just pocket the cash and go to sleep.

Wiser now :" Stein is a front for Hillary."

There is no doubt in my mind about that.
The Klintoon/Soros Crime Cabal always operates thru third party surrogates.
How else to delay, deny, lie, delay, obfuscate the election for the media to continue to harp on, indefinitely.
It's all part of a plan of denying the electorate's rejection of the Progressive/Soros/Obama/Klintoon "wrong way" agenda for the sake of feeding the media
who will continue the Soros bought and paid for media driven Progressive agenda.
