Green Party switches strategy in Pennsylvania recount bid
Yahoo News ^ | December 3, 2016 | MARC LEVY

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A Green Party-backed campaign changed its strategy to force a statewide recount of Pennsylvania's Nov. 8 presidential election, won by Republican Donald Trump, and said late Saturday night that it will seek help in the federal courts, rather than the state courts.

The announcement that it would seek an emergency federal court order on Monday for a recount came hours after it dropped a case in the state courts.

"Make no mistake — the Stein campaign will continue to fight for a statewide recount in Pennsylvania," recount campaign lawyer Jonathan Abady said in a statement issued around 11:30 p.m. "We are committed to this fight to protect the civil and voting rights of all Americans."

Nonsense, loser. The left doesn`t need excuses to try to bend the rules for their own advantage. It`s what they do, or maybe you forgot Gore vs Bush already. Trump was right to bring up the rigged system. It put the left on notice that he was watching them and would not take their vote theft lying down. Trump knows how to win. You do not.

one statement that: “there is voter fraud.” would have been enough.

That be the stupidest thing for him to say. It isn't just "voter fraud," it's the corruption from both parties and the media as well. All of these are encompassed by the terms "rigged." What kind of deranged idiot would just casually say "there is voter fraud," opening the door for idiots like you to say "he should shut his mouth!", but still failing to include the entirety of the forces working against him?

would have been enough. straw man is also allowed here but, i did not say anything about the commies contesting elections.

Do you even know what a straw man is? You claimed that by Trump talking about the "rigged election," that it caused the Rats to contest the election. That the rats would contest any election, especially one in which writers from Huffpo are publicly writing about how they checked themselves into psychiatric care on the night of the election, is bloody self-evident. Look at what they tried to do to Bush, and he never spoke about "rigged elections."

This is just a new fund raising scam for Stein at this point. Maybe she can milk another million from Soros and the other butthurt suckers out there for a federal court case that will get thrown out.

She and her attorneys know they have little to no chance of getting relief from the Federal Courts. Even an Obama judge would demand some prima facia evidence of fraud or tabulation error before ruling in her favor (she has acknowledged she has NONE). Also, the state of Pennsylvania has done nothing unconstitutional to her.

There is no justification for the Federal Courts to get involved in her case - no violation of her rights and no violations of Federal Laws in the state dealing with her.

” he does need to grow up.”

And you are worried about ad hominem attacks. Let me suggest to you that the President Elect is countless times more of an adult, and more of a man, than you - you stupid arrogant ass -.will ever be. What the Hell have YOU accomplished in life outside of banging away at keys on a keyboard, spouting the garbage that comes out of your tiny mind?

You are an arrogant gnat and ought to examine your own inadequacies before you start telling people who have accomplished more in one minute than you ever will in your entire life to “grow up.”

...trump’s big mouth about rigged elections helped fuel this Shiite. DJT does need to grow up.

I strongly disagree.

I think Trump's statements about the system being rigged for Democrats, helped wake millions of Americans to the reality of Democrat election fraud, and helped shine a huge spotlight on those cockroaches.

I think the cheating would have been much more widespread without all the sunshine Trump brought to the process.

The Dems engaged in rigging the election in the state of Nevada. We knew something was going to happen, we had more observers than we did in 2012 and they did it anyway.

I personally witnessed it as an election attorney for Trump and we are still turning over information to the Secretary of State so we never get stuck again.

Don’t think their systemic fraud was not done in other states. They merely failed to steal enough. (Yes there are limits)

And by the way, it was somewhat sophisticated yet did not involve electronic hacking.

They’ll try the familiar ways of the amoral left. If you don’t like the laws or election results, find a judge like Ginsburg or Sotomayor to throw them out.

That’s sounds like something the idiot, Levin, would say.
