Yes - the real question is: are the ballots that were submitted VALID ballots?!
simply re-counting the same ballots doesn’t give us a sense of ballot validity - only whether the canvassers are able to COUNT!
Mi recount ping
What is sad though is that these specious arguments will actually be considered by Goldsmith.
sigh...
What a despicable elitist.

sort of ...
Stein atty says federal law must protect right to a recount even without evidence fraud or error happened in the vote.

How despicable.
This judge bought Stein’s argument last time around, that no election is valid unless recounted. Now he is faced with court opposition from his own camp (6th Circuit) and the MI state courts. It sure is taking him a long time. Why not just drop back to his previous brilliant opinion, and find a federal constitutional requirement to recount every election. Gets it out of his office.
because - appeal and overturn I reckon...doesn’t look good on His Permanent Record.
The judge could be even more honest about his feelings and simply rule that Hillary won the election based on polls, with the actual vote proving fraud.
It wouldn’t stand, of course, but it would be refreshingly honest of him...
Yep - and it certainly seems that what the AG says is true: Jill Stein recount is about a result, not fraud or mistake

“Hillary won the election based on polls”
That is essentially the argument one doofus made - contesting the FL results:

Hehehe! That’s a good one
Wow - because fraud COULD happen, we must recount!

And since those are his feelings, he might as well under mandamus order the “inferior” court ruling to be ignored and the recount continue. Because he clearly feels that federal law is superior in this case, states rights and election laws be damned. Say it and everyone can get on with the appeal.
I don’t know if everyone has heard the latest, but after Hillary came in 2nd for Time’s “Person of the Year”, she is working with Jill Stein to demand a recount of the votes.
Ha! The Russians might have hacked Time.

This should have been done in 15 minutes, max. When the judge initially rule, the recount legally was authorized to begin, he just moved up the start. Now, the MI Court of Appeals has said no recount - so he has no reason to do anything other than lift his TRO.
