Initial report - later changed [Breaking, 3:20 p.m.: Lawrence Otter, a lawyer for Green Party candidate Jill Stein, said the campaign was dropping its Pennsylvania recount lawsuit Monday afternoon. Check back for updates.]

Revised:

HARRISBURG — Former Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein on Monday continued her campaign to contest the election results in three battleground states, filing suit in Pennsylvania seeking a statewide recount.

Legal papers filed in Commonwealth Court by a lawyer for Stein’s campaign conten the Nov. 8 election was “illegal” and the results inaccurate based on research suggesting there might have been irregularities with electronic voting machines, among other evidence.

“Petitioners have grave concerns about the integrity of electronic voting machines used in their districts,” the suit stated.

Though Monday’s petition was filed by 100 Pennsylvania voters, as required by the state’s election law, it is part of Stein’s effort to challenge results in three states that were critical to deciding the presidential election.

“Stein campaign drops Pennsylvania recount suit”

You got a link? That’s not what the story says.

Was it getting so expensive that it was jeopardizing full employment for her and her staff for the next 4 years on the donors’ dime?

What a fraud! the ‘lady’ is a thief!

Be kind of funny if a certain President-elect offered financial help for the first two or three hundred lawsuits against her, wouldn't it.

He could do it on the QT too, by any of a number of methods.

so that $1 Million goes towards paying off her campaign bills ???

She's raised over $6 million and her site is still accepting donations.

Funny thing is she barely raised $3 million for her campaign.

Maybe 6.9 million of it pays off Roque De La Fuente’s campaign’s loans.

Wait a second, I went to the link on Philly.com, and it didn’t say anything about Stein dropping her suit. What is the correct link? Thanks.

In a conflict, I’m thinking I’m going with the Philly source this time.

I don’t think so...I went to the site, clicked on the ‘Drops Lawsuit’ link and it references filing a recount suit...

I believe the ‘Drops’ here is a verb that means ‘files’ - show me where I am incorrect, please.

This is great news!

It should cause the collapse of the other recounts because without PA, it is impossible for the election to be thrown.

Unless Stein/Clinton/Soros seek to recount a slew of other states, this should be the final nail in the Clinton coffin.

I believe she dislikes Hillary more than Trump. What if she takes this money and starts looking at states Hillary won! :)

Couldn’t find enough Pennsylvania electors who want to risk a perjury charge?
