There is a State Court hearing on Tuesday whether to proceed or not. AG arguing that Stein only put up 900 K and the cost will be about $5 MM, which the taxpayers will be on the hook for. Also, she can not prove that she was harmed by the vote and that a Recount would change anything. If the State Court throws out the case, it’s over unless she decides to file suit in Federal Court like she did in PA. If WI recount shows Trump still the winner, it won’t matter.

Yes. That is probable.
Hopefully courts stop all this crap over next few days.
Democrats hate following rules...
They register illegal voters, they improperly fill out ballots, they cheat in counting, they ignore election laws.
Cheating bastards... all of ‘em.

Besides being an Obama appointee. If he had already made up his mind he could have judged from home.

Any reasonable judge would tell her to get a life and get out of his chambers or courtroom.

If this judge decides to the the recount go forward, the appeal will be to the Sixth Circuit of Appeals, where there are fifteen Republican appointed judges to nine Democrat appointed judges. See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Sixth_Circuit

Chances for good guys look good.

I was asking the same question.
The MI AG filed his suit in state court.

Looks like Stein made it a Fed issue.

Brewer challenged a two-business-day waiting period required under state law that had the recount starting Wednesday. Brewer said the waiting period violated Stein’s rights to due process and equal protection and he pushed for the recount of 4.8 million ballots to start immediately.

They will appeal to scotus. And scotus will take it up, and do 5-3

This is a coup attempt. Pure and simple

This is what these sub human scum do when they don’t get their way.

I am so sick of these cretins

On Friday, Trump and Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette sued separately in state court to block the recount, with Schuette asking that his case be sent directly to the Michigan Supreme Court to expedite appeals. Those cases are pending.

If they don’t like the outcome, they will appeal to scotus

That has been the plan all along.

“Would a judge know this and realize it’s a huge waste of tax dollars?”

Wasting tax dollars is never a consideration.

Michigan. She was on the Chris Wallace show this morning on Fox and she talked about it. She has also mentioned it prior to this mornings show. I wish he would have pushed back on that and also state many people left the president blank on their ballot this election.

This whole meaningless process is merely pinko, lib, obstructionist BS. Stein should have to put up a substantial bond (say $5 million) that would be forfeit if the recount didn't result in any change.

“This is a coup attempt. Pure and simple”

Yes this coup has been planned and paid for by Soros.

Soros has paid millions to lawyers etc. to plan this and it has been planned for months. Nobody is taking it seriously because the liberal mainstream media says that this won't change anything.

Soros did a coup in Ukraine.

How can it be a coup attempt if there is no liklihood they will be to overturn the vote in any of the three states?

There is something else going on here...

Honestly, I don’t think that they thought they were gonna lose. That was a shock.

That would explain the two weeks that they went quiet. Why wait two weeks to contest? They had to map a strategy.

Full steal attempt. Whether it is successful, we will see

The backlash will be incredible

It is obvious this is a full steal attempt by Soros and Hillary. Why others don't see it is beyond me.

Soros already did a successful coup in another country Ukraine so this creep knows how to do it and has unlimited billions of dollars to do it

I’ve seen the scan of the elector certificate sent to the national archives.
