MADISON, WIS. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein says she's committed to pay for a vote recount in Wisconsin even though she calls the estimated $3.5 million cost "exorbitant."
Stein says the estimate Monday from Wisconsin election officials means she'll be asking her supporters to raise another $2.4 million. In a statement Tuesday, Stein says it's an "undue burden" but won't stop efforts for recounts in that state and in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

“A Democrat and YOUR money are soon PARTED.”
Great tagline.
Republicans need to file a lawsuit here against the dane county elections officials on these two very clear illegal actions.
Yup. She’s trying the “contested election” route as that was the only remaining legal option. Considering what she presented in her suit, it will take an exceptionally corrupt judge in Dauphin County to agree to it. And, of course, if she actually found one THAT corrupt, an appeal would be filed within the hour.
Were gonna need more popcorn.
She’s got 5 minutes to fork over that money.
60 seconds...
Kinda like watching the end of an eBay auction
Show time.
I wonder how much the presidency of cuba is going for.
TIME’S UP. Is anyone able to find out if she paid on-time?
She wired the payment.

Wisconsin Elections Commission press release acknowledges receipt of payment of $3.5M
They should have filed one Monday challenging the whole legality of the WI recount. They had (and still do have if they get off their legal duffs) of successfully having the whole recount thrown out due to WI WEC approving Steins recount petition w/o the initial estimated costs payment up front. WI Law requires payment be received for the recount be received the same time as the petition being approved.
They did this in violation of their own state law and also violated Federal Law in the process by changing election rules/laws after the election. This violates the Safe Harbor Law provision that prohibits states from changing their election rules post election. The FR link is below about the whole WI
being illegal!!

Never seen our sides legal team so silent when they should be making some challenges at least!
Media sure is giving her loads of attention.
It would be hilarious if all this crazy recount business is Soros’ idea and all his sycophants are blindly following right along with it not knowing Soros is in the advanced stages of Alzheimers.
Soros Losers.
I’ve never seen soros before. He looks like a decayed, disgusting, desperately unhappy excuse of a human who wants to see the earth in flames before he dies. If anybody ever needed Christ, it’s him.
