This needs to be shut down now before any further bootstrapping occurs.

Stein lacks a factual basis for her belief that a mistake, fraud, defect, irregularity, or illegality HAS occurred. Neither Stein nor Halderman have provided any evidence to that effect.

Stein wants a recount in order to determine if there is any irregularity. This is exactly backwards.

Wisconsin law [Wis. Stat. § 9.01(1)(a)2.b] requires that a petitioner for a recount be informed and believe that a mistake, fraud, defect, irregularity, or illegality HAS occurred. Stein has provided no facts to inform her belief that any of this HAS occurred in Wisconsin. Indeed, her petition states that a recount is necessary to determine whether evidence of an irregularity exists.

Stein’s petition:

2. The Petitioner is informed and believes that an irregularity has occurred...

3. The Petitioner is informed and believes that:

g. “A hand count of paper ballots [] are necessary to make this determination”

Stein has not provided any evidence to support her belief that any irregularity has occurred and is requesting a recount to determine whether evidence supporting her belief exists.

try more like 60-70million or more. there was a youtube that gave a really good very detailed and well put together explanation of the problem over the decades. Even the amnesty in 80’s wasn’t just 3 million amnesty because there were millions more here at the time but unaccounted for.

Then demand any illegal alien votes be deleted. Supposedly over 3 million, with 2 million in CA alone.

California uses the "honor system" to vet their voters, very little else: same day registration, no voter ID requirements, etc.

No. Soros would just reimburse her. That’s why the financial penalty now doesn’t really work-—because you have an evil sh#t like Soros just hurling millions at the system. HE is the problem. HE must be jailed.

I’m convinced that Stein’s online fundraising was paid for by bots from Soros. The pattern is simply too odd to be humans.

I've always thought the MSM lowballed the number. I remember 30 million being reported about ten years ago. It may be approaching 60-70 million as you said. And 'only' 3 million voted? Hope Trump's team gets to the bottom of this and reverses their votes somehow. We have to right the ship of state. SO many areas to work on. He really has a job ahead of him. .

The California system is a joke. So you can 'honor system' your way to voting 30 times? We need Voter ID with Driver's license, maybe birth certificate and only vote once. How difficult is that? At least we have two years before the mid-terms to work on this.

We need to daily Pray for Trump and his associates. We finally have someone who will Fight!

Agreed. Would be nice to see to see Soros arrested by Trumps DOJ then shipped off to Russia via extradition treaty to face certain justice there. He is wanted there for numerous crimes committed there. We will never hear from him again once the Russians have him!

If your word isn't good enough for folks we may as well take some time off, have a few good drinks to toast our victory yet again and come back when they've tired themselves out...lol!

Really the overall sense I get from this is an overwhelming amount of fear on the left. Not a viable course of action, but desperation.

Here’s info from the ChiTribune

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/politics/ct-jill-stein-election-recount-fundraising-20161124-story.html

“...The pleas for attorney fees is above and beyond what the party did 12 years ago. One reason? Pennsylvania’s actual recount deadline has passed - the Greens are raising money to go to court. ...”

So that leaves MI and WI with their 10+16 electoral votes.

President Elect Trump is at 306; take away 26 leaves 280, still enough to win.

What are the chances of a court win in PA?

And see Ray76’s post about what comes first when asking for a recount in WI:

I registered to vote in WA state, and no one asked to see my US Citizenship by Naturalization certificate. It was and is strictly an honor system. Before that I registered in Illinois, and IIRC it was a democrat precinct captain who came to my home and registered me. Again, did not ask to see proof of citizenship.

It’s just a chip in a much larger poker game. If the game stops people will go to jail or worse be killed for selling influence they didn’t have.

Yup. Every option they will will shake the tree for. Buncha losers. 8 years of faggotry and socialism, and these pukes aren’t done destroying the country.

What is being done is not an attempt to change the result, this is an attempt to make the entire process seem unreliable and “illegitimate.” Was discussed here.

I think the most logical concern is that the Electoral Voters from Wisconsin aren’t allowed to participate on December 19. I think that is the Democrats end game.
In the Gore vs Bush debacle, Supremes ruled that a recount could not delay participation of the states electors, if I remember correctly. They also ruled 7-2 that the recount procedures were flawed since they did not apply the same to all the states votes -- only select few counties. The slim majority of 5-4 was on the opinion of whether FL could get it done correctly in time or not for the entire state. The majority 6 stating that they could not provide the remedy in time. So, the count stood because the Supreme Court stated that the states electors had to vote in Dec for the winner of the state's electors.

Meant majority “5” not “6”

That’s asinine. Once the recount is complete and Trump is shown as the winner again, that claim will have no meaning.
