She can’t have thought that she would win in a recount thus lowering Trump’s EC lead.

Is her argument that the votes for her should have been for Clinton, despite the fact that there was at least one other candidate between the names? In Harris county the names were alphabetically listed.

Ross Perot arguably put Bill Clinton in the White House in 1992.

Good thing you included the word "arguably" because GHW Bush put Clinton in the White House, not Perot.

IN WI, Johnson received 107,000 votes. In PA Johnson won 144,300 votes and McMullen 1,360. In MI Johnson received 172,136 votes.

A case can be made that Johnson hurt Trump worse than Stein did Hillary.

Agreed. Jill Stein is doing this on behalf of Hillary and paid for by Hillary’s minions. The Jill Stein challenge allows Hillary Tyrant Wannabe to stay above the fray and to preserve her manufactured reputation for being a “statesman” while still throwing a tantrum over losing when it was finally her turn to win.

It’s a shame Jill Stein didn’t choose Barney Frank for her running mate. Then we could truthfully say that the Frank & Stein campaign was artificially brought back from death by a crazy person bent on controlling life itself.

And in the end, there were about 26,000 votes dividing Trump and hildabeast in NV. Never knew there were so many members in hairy screeds culinary union. ;-) Lucky for us kat mantos will carry hairy’s message along the way while he pulls her strings.

Johnson received 4,418,013 (3.29% ) this time. And Stein received 1,395,182 (1.04%). This is a major increase for both over 2012. They ran again to get voters who didn’t want Hillary or Trump.

Whether Perot, Nader, Stein or Johnson, fringe candidates are by definition anti-establishment. Major party candidates have no one to blame but themselves.

I'm not going to argue the point at length here because it's been argued to death. But: the place to win those battles is the primary. Throwing the election to the other side in the hopes of inheriting the rubble is generally a poor strategy.

The Dems in Clark County have a very effective GOTV. Even the illegals and those living out of state get to vote. That said the Kalifornication of Vegas is complete.

I wish WI would refuse to do the recount, let her sue them. Long after the inauguration.

Soros, I suspect, is funding these antics. But, there must be very little risk of vote fraud being brought to light in a recount.

About 2,500 vote difference in Washoe. Obviously we need to import some more conservatives into the Truckee Meadows area.

Re: It seems forgotten that Stein got half a million votes in 2012, and that Johnson got over a million then. It’s pretty clear that neither ran for president in 2016 to hurt Trump.

I don't know much about Stein, but Johnson is a total narcissist. I don't know what his total intentions were, but putting himself in the spotlight is what he does. Heard him in a radio interview just a couple weeks before the election, and he was totally negative on Trump, actually calling on Trump to throw in the towel because there was no way Trump could win. Johnson actually spoke as if he had a chance of winning. It was totally absurd. i don't recall him attacking HIllary. Just Trump. In 2012, it was the same thing. Johnson came off as an arrogant candidate. Both times he siphoned votes from the republican side, although this time I assume he got some from potheads as well.

Mostly the NV Rep party needs to get it’s head out of it’s ass. They have never recovered from the Paultards wrecking it and now there is more drama.

Sad what has happened to Vegas. By letting in the unions, the casinos have crapped in their own foxholes. And diluted the vote of rural Nevadans. A smaller version of NYC vs. Upstate NY.
