The Election Is Really, Really Over Now — And Donald Trump Is The Winner
Buzz Feed News ^ | December 3, 2016 | Chris Geidner

Pennsylvania court on Saturday accepted the Green Party’s request to end its case seeking a statewide recount — a move that ends any remaining doubt, however slight, about whether Donald Trump is the victor in the 2016 presidential race.

Most — including Hillary Clinton’s campaign — expected Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein’s recount efforts in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin not to change the result in any of those states. The reality, however, was that the election results would not have changed unless the recounts shifted the states to Clinton in all of those states.

With Pennsylvania off the table, even a flip in the Michigan and Wisconsin results would still leave Trump at 280 electoral votes — 10 above the 270 necessary to become the next president.

Lawyers for the Green Party told the Associated Press that they would not be able to meet the Monday deadline for a $1 million bond that the Pennsylvania court had ordered in the case....

Can they recant their ask to end the case on Monday if Soros coughs up some more money?

...

I was thinking the same thing, but I think they are using money as an excuse. They’re really dropping the case for other reasons, like it’s hopeless.

H-> has more than 30 years of Bad Karma following her around. To blame just one poor choice on her part misses the total picture of crookedness.

Plus a recount lawsuit has just been filed in Florida.

Trump won Florida by 100,000 votes...

Never going to happen...

Let’s see if the real people behind this all will file a suit on Monday, the Dems!

Yeah, I guess Soros told her to save the money for bribing the electors.

The PA vote has been certified and there are no recounts ongoing. There is no way to reduce Trump’s margin to .05% and trigger an automatic recount.
Stein’s suit has been withdrawn and it cannot be refiled because the deadline is past.

Massive voter fraud was found in Nevada. Trump, more than likely, took Nevada.

Probably. Prop 1 (background check) fraudulently squeaked by:
Question 1 Approved
Result Votes Percentage
Yes 558,631 50.45%
No 548,732 49.55%

Every County except Clark voted "No", most by 80%. Even Washoe (Reno) voted 54% "No".

Go HERE for an interactice county map.

On top of which Florida election law states that these clowns would have to find a judge that would order the recount - that would lead to an appeal by either the GOP or Trump and the clock would be “run out”. After Monday, there are only 9 days until Dec 13 - the day ALL the states votes must be certified.
