Clintons Confirm Participation In Recount Plan, Despite No "Actionable Evidence Of Hacking"
ZeroHedge.com ^ | 26 November 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 11/26/2016 11:50:59 AM PST by Rockitz

This morning Hillary Clinton's campaign general counsel, Marc Elias, confirmed what we all knew already, namely that Jill Stein is likely acting at the direction of the Clintons in her recount efforts in WI, MI and PA. The discovery came after Elias posted a note to Hillary voters this morning on Medium confirming that they would participate in Stein's recount efforts even though the Clinton campaign itself had decided against a recount because they had "not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology." This approach seems to align perfectly with the strategy we laid out two days ago:

We joke, of course, as Jill Stein's effort to raise money for recounts in WI, PA and MI is obviously being done on behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign. It's a very clever approach (we would expect nothing less) as it allows Hillary to maintain the high road as the gracious loser while allowing someone else to play the bad guy...typical Clinton politics really.

That said, since Jill Stein decided to act "completely independently" to waste the money of a bunch of donors the Hillary general counsel figures they might as well participate despite the fact that "the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states—Michigan—well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount."

Because we had not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, we had not planned to exercise this option ourselves, but now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides.

Rats take the following as a challenge...

Hillary general counsel figures they might as well participate despite the fact that "the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states—Michigan—well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount."

She does, however, have actionable evidence of campaign debt, so open your wallets and send it in.

Not only does Her Heinous need Michigan, IIRC she would also need two other swing states. It ain’t gonna happen.

And I think the recount deadline has passed in Pennsylvania.

It only makes sense for them to "participate." When a candidate calls for a recount in an election, the other candidates should have representatives involved as a matter of course.

Interestingly, there are a lot of Democrats who aren't happy about this. The party is trying to raise money in a desperate attempt to win the runoff election in the Louisiana U.S. Senate race, and they see this as nothing more than a stupid distraction that isn't going to go anywhere.

They have to participate- and so does Trump.

"Intent of voter", etc will be determined. Observers have to be provided by the campaigns to participate in these decisions.

Or else

Right. And Hillary Clinton, Anthony Weiner, Huma Abedin and John Podesta were all going to be arrested in late October for their role in some kind of child sex ring.

Do you really think the Trump team doesn't know what's going on in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania?

Do you have any evidence that George Soros has any involvement in this at all?

I swear I've come across more conspiracy nuts here on FreeRepublic in the last two months than any other website in my lifetime.

That’s good to hear. Even flipping Wisconsin and Michigan, Trump wins.

May the LORD God of Israel protect and defend President Elect Donald Trump and Vice President Elect Michael Pence against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

Isaiah, Catholic chapter fifty four, Protestant verses fifteen to seventeen,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James

Hopefully, Trump & Bannon anticipated dirty tricks such as this and has kept close watch on who had access to the ballots.

It would be harder to believe that he wasn’t involved. It’s proven that he is funding the anti-Trump protesters/rioters.
