Dems Are Stalling, Recount Will Not Be Completed, WISCONSIN WILL FORFEIT TRUMP VOTES

Wisconsin Representative Sean Duffy (R-WI) went on with Tucker Carlson tonight to discuss the recount in Wisconsin.

 

Duffy said Democrats and far left Green Party supporters are stalling the recount in Dane County Wisconsin, where Madison is located. The county is holding a hand recount. The recount will not be completed by the deadline on December 20th. Therefore, according to Rep. Duffy, the state will quite possibly be forced to forfeit their electoral votes.

 

This was the plan all along. Democrats knew they couldn’t make up 20,000 votes. But they also knew if they stalled on the recount the state could not certify the vote.

 

Wisconsin, won fairly by Donald Trump, will forfeit.

 

Federal law says that presidential recounts must be completed within 35 days after an election. Stein waited until 90 minutes before the Wisconsin deadline for filing a recount petition expired.

 

All the votes have to be certified by December 13 according to a report on Friday. The electors meet on December 19.

 

Wisconsin will almost certainly miss that deadline, since the last recount took more than a month. And that recount was for a state Supreme Court contest where only 1.5 million votes were cast.

 

If Wisconsin misses the December 19 deadline, the electoral votes may not be counted.

 

This was Hillary and Jill Stein’s plan all along.

Gateway Pundit often makes many claims that are never proved.

More election fraud by the Democrats.

“Gateway Pundit often makes many claims that are never proved.”

Click bait ... and you get bombarded with pop-ups.

Too bad the WI Board of Elections didn’t avoid all this angst by closing down at 3pm the day she filed.

[MaxistheBest]

I would hope that the state government officials would do something to prevent the state becoming a laughingstock.

[Az Joe]

You are wasting everyone’s time with this crap.

[Sacajaweau]

I believe if there are no biggies to date, the court will order them to use the original count with any corrections to date and to go home and drink yourself silly.

[justlurking]

No, they won't.

Seriously.... please stop pimping Hoft's blog. All he is doing is trolling for hits so he can collect from ad networks.

[OttawaFreeper]

I bet if that scenario were to occur, the Democrat brand in that state would be more popular than hot cakes. Seriously, if it were to ever get anywhere near to that situation, the state legislature and Supreme Court would most likely be well within the right to order a charade shut down right then and there.

I would hope that the state government officials would do something to prevent the state becoming a laughingstock.

Yes, the failsafe is very simple: the WI state legislature will select the recipient of the elector's votes.

[discostu]

Maybe Wisconsin just needs to get their act together. 1 month for a recount of 1.5 million votes is inexcusable. Do your job, get it done, certify.

Gateway Pundit has become one of the worst sites on the web. Someone over there ought to ask themselves a simple question:

If it was this easy to make a state "forfeit" its electoral votes, then why haven't presidential candidates been doing it for 200 years?

[Gargantua]

Good grief. Jim “Petunia” Hoft is stomping his indignant and fearful little foot again. Maybe it’s his time of month.

[M Kehoe]

WI EVs will go to Trump on December 19.

Not that it really matters.

MI and PA EV will go to president elect Trump.

It’s over for Washington and the Left.

Exactly.

A sky is falling bullshite story.

They occasionally get some good ones though.

[fhayek]

Logic dictates that stalling cannot be a winning strategy. Otherwise, every election, everywhere would be challenged on this basis. Liberals. When did they ever build anything? They are hell-bent on destruction.

[MaxistheBest]

Hoft is a jerk..but he has been cleaning up this election season...has had quite a few of his stories linked from Drudge ...that’s solid gold.

[KrisKrinkle]

If WisconsiHTML n forfeits its Electoral votes, so what? The citizens of Wisconsin will be ticked off at the Democrats next election, but it won’t affect Trump’s winning this one.

[OttawaFreeper]

Pardon my grammatical error. I meant to say “that charade” as opposed to “a charade”.
