Oops! Jill Stein Cannot File Direct Request for Recount in Pennsylvania, Must Take It to Court
Gateway Pundit ^ | 11/26/2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 11/27/2016 8:15:02 AM PST by GilGil

Per Pennsylvania regulations, there is only one way remaining for Jill Stein to get a recount in Pennsylvania and it is a complicated process. BillyPenn reports that Stein would have to file for a court appeal and present a “prima facie case” showing that voter fraud took place. While prima facie has a lower burden of proof threshold than “beyond reasonable doubt,” it is still significant. Stein would have to prove in court that fraud was “probable.” This is going to be very difficult given that even the computer specialists recommending the recount say there is no proof of hacking or fraud...

Stein has to prove that fraud took place:

In addition to submitting the petition, Stein must demonstrate that "a mistake or fraud has been committed. She has not yet done so.

“Trump is now free to hurt the Clintons in my opinion.”....

Note to Donald, “Time to go for the throat”

You seem determined to stop people from talking about this issue.

I understand that you’re confident this will all come to naught, but shutting down communication won’t do a thing to assuage the fears and doubts of others who aren’t as confident as you.

I suggest we keep the discussions going, so that everyone here becomes better informed about the process, and what the likely outcomes of each step will be.

That’s the way to ease people’s minds.

here’s an article describing the nightmare of a Pennsylvania recount.

Trump is the 45th president...PERIOD.

What i would like to see is, some investigative reporter find out who funded Stein @ 160k an hour.

I agree. Trump indicated that he might go easy on Hillary. Instead of playing nice, she filed a meaningless recount just to irritate him. A stupid move.

People should be reminded of her harsh, condemning words when she was asked about Trump possibly doing this same thing. Shows she is a total phony, does what she claims outrages her.

This is not a recount. It’s retirement income for Jill Stein.

Too many people are addicted to anxiety and fighting with windmills while accomplishing nothing.

I do not hold the delusion that I can stop discussions.

I just do not have much respect for anxiety for the sake of anxiety and wasting time accomplishing nothing. A careful analysis of this recount thing shows there is no way it will happen meaning preventing Trump from being president. 100% guaranteed Trump becomes 45th prez.

The hysteria is ridiculous. I just don’t want to wallow in it.

the problem to date has been the unwillingness of the Republicans to stand up and FIGHT these bastards!

I am asking for a couple of reasons. First you posted this article and then replied to somebody on the article with the link to the same article that you just posted that this thread is about.

Makes me wonder if you’re getting reimbursed for how many clicks you direct to the article.

I don’t care if you or anybody else makes money but my second reason is if you are working for Gateway pundit can you tell them to stop setting up there news articles so when you try to scroll on your phone down the page of the article the first two times you touch the screen it doesn’t automatically open up an advertisement and pretend like I’m clicking on some link.

I’m sick and tired of their website hijacking my web browser and I’m never reading another Gateway pundit story from their website again until they fix it.

If I want to click on their Advertiser I will click on their Advertiser, scrolling down my screen should not open up a couple of advertisements

Why not send them an e-mail.

I use GP to illustrate a point but working for them as you say would be working for less than peanuts. It’s an amusing question.

I'm glad that you've accumulated sufficient data to perform a careful analysis of this process. It's obviously bolstered your confidence immensely.

Now kindly allow others to catch up to you, so that they, too, can be as confident as you are.

Again I’m not mean this as an insult it just peaked my interest. There’s someone else on this website that posts nothing but Canada Free Press articles and they never comment on anything if you look at their history every Canada Free Press article they post and they never comment on anything they post and they never comment on anything else on for your public all they do is post those articles.

You’re evading my point.

You’ve been telling people for days to ignore this issue. You’ve continually discounted it as a mere distraction, unworthy of our attention.

Given that we’re watching the left interfering with an election yet again, and given that they are known for being ruthless cheats where it comes to politics, it behooves us all to pay very close attention to what they’re doing.

As long as there is even a slim chance of success, they’ll do everything in their power to overturn this election.

Precisely! Stein gets to walk away with $5-10 million. Now let’s see if Stein forks over the $5 million she will need for this recount and keep in mind this price tag will be an estimate. It is likely to be much more on a venture that has zero chance of success.

Nothing has happened yet!

For this ball to start rolling Stein has to write out a $5 million check. Nothing will move if money does not get paid and it has not.
