Clinton campaign: We are taking part in the recount

Washington (CNN)Hillary Clinton's campaign said Saturday it will take part in efforts to push for recounts in several key states, joining with Green Party candidate Jill Stein, who has raised millions of dollars to have votes counted again in Wisconsin.

But, in a post on Medium, Marc Elias, the campaign's counsel, said the campaign's own investigation has not uncovered any evidence of hacking of voting systems. In the campaign's most detailed comments to date on the recount, Elias wrote that while the campaign was not going to contest the results itself, it has decided now to take part in the effort to "ensure that it is fair to all sides."

well said. I am amazed at them. They can’t face obama’s obviously the worst president ever and Hillary was a common thief totally exposed as corrupt beyond question. They are spewing propaganda like mad to divert attention from the total collapse of the communist left. They have no undefeated leaders under 70!! They are totall destroyed. Trump will dismantle and abolish their agenda so they blame “Russian”? You can’t make this stuff up!!

How is this an automatic win for Clinton? If the RINOs where in charge, maybe. Is Trump and his supporters going to sit back and let them steal it?

I don’t think a recount would do a very good job of filtering out illegal votes at this point (there are too many liberals with too much time on their hands to harass the election commissions), but it would be hilarious if it ended up proving the truth of a Trump popular vote victory.

You may be able to determine an individual voted illegally, but unless its an early/absentee ballot, there is no way to determine whom that person voted for. The voting booth is sacred, remember?

When she said she was gone fishing, I assumed she meant it literally.

I’ve had to post a link to the Schoolhouse Rock song explaining the Electoral College in response to 2 Hillary dead-enders recently.

It brought laughter when I suggested some time back that when Hillary is one day dead, it would be best to check with a long pointy stick.

Still laughing?

President-elect Trump, if you any thought whatsoever of letting this lying, murderous woman thug off the hook, think again.

And if/when Trump’s lawyers get involved in this recount nonsense they can demand that the rules of the recount be spelled out and agreed upon before the first ballot is reviewed. Foreclose any possibility of the lefties changing the rules mid-count to seek an outcome more favorable to them.

“..Crooked Hillary wants to steal the election.
CWII will be the result if she does....”

They think they got trouble in the streets now, Just watch. IF they manage to pull this off, libs will die by the thousands, if not by the millions. The People have spoken and it’s time for them to STFU and/or GTFO.

I would think that during the hue and cry of the recount that the Hillary camp is presently in the process of creating more ballots.

…Aaaand the other shoe drops.

I (and many others, I’m sure) knew that this wasn’t some “independent” effort by an also-ran to somehow ensure the integrity of the election.

At worst, a ploy to overturn the election. At best, as scam to separate money from the voters.

Al Franken was able to pull it off against Coleman in 2008 - don't count Shrillary down and out just yet. Hitlery has millions screaming their heads off and rioting in the streets, and in safe rooms on college campuses all over the nation.



Time the RATS took stock of just what type of Government we have here in America and it AIN'T a democracy where mob rules. And not the popular vote does NOT elect the President of the USA. We are done with the Clinton dynasty so get off the stage already.

There is no way in 40 hells that 70,000 votes for Trump will mysteriously disappear. He won the state going away. 70,000 votes. End of story. It’s only. PA absolutely should not allow a recount.

It’s largely a test of what they can get away with by just pouring money on a problem. Not for this time—the _next_ time.

This should be nipped in the bud. Forget Republicans. It’ll be a chance for Dems to rid themselves of a harmful nuisance. It’s in their interest to put her to pasture, too.

People are missing the intent of this “recount”. It’s not to recount in the way we are accustomed to. Here’s what they are up to.

This is not intended to find enough votes to win. It’s a fishing expedition to find a computer hack that may even be, or have been planted by them. Whether real or imagined makes no difference. Once alleged to have been “found”, all hell will break loose.

With a cheerleading media, no telling where this winds up.

We cannot allow them to pull an Al Franken and keep recounting until they get the result they desire. Not this time. No.

The only States being checked by the scuz are one’s where Hillary was close. Trump needs to file for recounts in States he barely lost. The Clintons are creepy but they know the angles.
