President-elect Donald Trump denounced the effort to recount Wisconsin's votes as a "scam" engineered by Green Party candidate Jill Stein, calling on voters to "accept this result and then look to the future."
On Saturday, the campaign of Democratic contender Hillary Clinton said it would back Stein's efforts to take a fresh look at voting results in Wisconsin, a crucial swing state that narrowly backed Trump over Clinton. Stein has been raising millions for more than a week—more than she did for her entire campaign, in fact.
In a statement, however, Trump blasted the effort as a way for Stein to "fill her coffers with money, most of which she will never even spend on this ridiculous recount. All three states were won by large numbers of voters, especially Pennsylvania, which was won by more than 70,000 votes," Trump said.
"This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded, and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing," the president-elect added.
The Clinton team had been quiet about Stein's crusade, but campaign lawyer Marc Elias said that because a recount was set into motion Friday — and could begin as soon as next week — they want to see a "fair" process for all involved.
"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," Elias wrote in a Medium post explaining the decision, "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."

Lefties never accept the results.
To them, a legitimate election is one they win; an illegitimate election is one they lose.
You dont know how the dems cheat here in WI.
There are many machines and there is a Global Election Management System (GEMS). Most of these things were at one time manufactured by Dominion and Smartmatic.
Both Dominion and Smartmatic were heavy donors to Clinton.
Soros at one time owned Smartmatic but sold it to Dominion. BUT the Soros IT group retained all the IP of both companies products. That means Soros people control and maintain the software for GEMS, Smartmatic machines, and Dominion machines.
Not all the machines need to be connected to the internet. Here’s a horrifying but instructive video of what can be done by machines not directly connected to the internet.

Thank you. I told you I might be naive!
Praying this evil is shown in the light and that it fails spectacularly.
