Republicans NEVER win close votes since Bush v Gore, Rats learned how to keep counting until they win.

I think 22K is enough to not qualify as close enough, unless they have new tricks up their crooked sleeves.

If they keep pushing this crap then Trump ought to start with NH (H won by 2732) and the other states Hillary narrowly won. Then demand any illegal alien votes be deleted. Supposedly over 3 million, with 2 million in CA alone.

Also, one thing I haven't heard addressed, supposedly there are 30-40 million illegal aliens here in the US, and only 3 million voted? I bet the number is a lot higher.

Same campaign meme, Fight On!

You obviously didn’t take the time to read the manual. The process makes it impossible to introduce ballots that weren’t previously counted. They can’t introduce new ballots. As well the likelihood of the counts being off that much using the methods per-scribed are highly unlikely. While it doesn’t prevent fraud to occur it won’t occur on a grand scale, meaning that this is a big fat nothingburger.

Ooooooh

http://wsau.com/news/articles/2016/nov/23/heres-why-some-votes-wont-be-counted-in-wisconsin/

“Of the 750 provisional ballots cast November 8th, the Wisconsin Elections Commission says 618 were because the voter did not have an acceptable photo ID under state law.

While final numbers are not available, the agency says they know 116 were counted, 278 were rejected, and 224 have not had their status updated. The commission also notes a total of 399 provisional ballots were marked as “deadline expired,” which is a indication they were not counted after Election Day.”

Very good news. I had not seen any count of provisionals, assuming that reporter got it right.

Now the only question mark is rejected absentees in Milwaukee.

If laws don’t apply to them, then they don’t apply to us either.

Good luck with all that.

“All they need is a sympathetic judge or judges. Laws mean nothing to the communists.”

We all should be thankful that the last “recount” made the Wisconsin SC Conservative. They will be the gatekeepers here against some $hit ball judge in Milwaukee trying to ovrerturn the election.

>>WI is run by Walker and he knows all the Dem tricks

Everything is run by a handful of judges in today’s America. They let us run things the way we want, but when someone finds a way to push something before one of them, they become a dictator.

As the Green Bay Quarterback once said relax

Wisconsin is not the only place she has to over come, Michigan which is paperless and Trump is up over 12,000 votes already did a recount and Pennsyanlia where Trump is up 68,236 . If that happens there will be a Civil War

Dems are all excited by this claiming before the recount starts; thinking there are a lot more errors... after this fails they will go back to Clinton won the popular vote so Trump is illegitimate and we need to get rid of the EC.

If Rotten Clinton had won, the case would have been derisively tossed out of court.

“Basically the recount will be +/- a few hundred votes. Just like it was in Florida in 2000. Except Trump is starting out 22K ahead - not 1K ahead like GWB”

Trump is ahead by 27,257

It never reached a court. Any candidate can request a recall in WI if they provide the funds to cover the costs of such recount. There is no judge involvement.

this whole recount fiasco is a gigantic waste of time and money.....a bunch of lawyers will reap benefits, but no one else will gain anything. The number of popular votes that Hillary had over Trump was roughly the number of illegals who voted in California.

Neither of those counts is necessarily the official count.

Typically, a state finalizes their vote count a few days before naming the state’s electors, which is December 13 this year.

The biggest reason that Wisconsin was picked for a recount is because of the Secretary of State for the State of Wisconsin is Douglas J. La Follette, a notoriously liberal Democrat, who would sell his mother to advance the Progressive cause.

It was easy for Jill Stein to talk him into gearing up for a recount, even though the margin of victory was much greater than necessary to accept a settled result. The whole move is a delaying tactic, to invalidate the slate of electors pledged to Trump.

Is there anyone out there who thinks the Repubs have had anyone watching the computers and vote boxes for the three weeks since the election? While no doubt the Dems have been doing their dirty work behind closed doors. This is outrageously un-American. There is no reason for WI to allow a recount - NONE.

Rules for recount in Wisconsin, Michigan, and PA:

Step 1 - check every car trunk in Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philadelphia.

Step 2 - count all the ballots you find.

Step 3 - call DNC headquarters to ask how many ballots you found.

Step 4 - declare victory.

I'm SENATOR Al Franken, and I approved this message.
