It was a 3-2 ruling, the court said the MI Court of Appeals correctly ruled that Stein was ineligible to pursue a recount.
This COULD end Stein’s recount quest. She could still try a federal appeal to the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals or even the U.S. Supreme Court.
The recount invites legal battles in both state and federal courts about whether a candidate with zero chance of winning was qualified to request a recount. The recount is void. With 39% of recount complete, Clinton gained 102 votes. Cost $3,000,000.
Stein plans a protest rally Saturday.
They will be reimbursing Stein for where she overpaid for non recounted precincts.
But, it’s still premature since there’s a chance the MI SC could resume the recount.
Above from the article.
It’s over 6 circuit court don’t want to open up another can of worms.
“President-Elect Trump”
The most salient words in the decision.
I wonder if Hillary! had counted on Jill rather than face (accurate) hypocrisy charges, given her reaction to Trump’s statement about accepting the election results? Is she now kicking herself in the rear for NOT petitioning for recounts on her own behalf?
Its over.
This is not about electoral integrity, this is about Stein’s ego.
She is insufferable.
It’s not over until Trump is sworn in. Until then, our side needs to stay on this.
Why is it that Democrats always gain votes in recounts!
She enjoys the attention.
A Friday news drop that doesn’t suck?!
Omg, I’ve forgotten about all the perks of WINNING!!!
FL refused recount request today as well. Over, no matter what happens with WI and PA, but WI will finish & PA will tell her to GTFO.
I don’t trust her to give up. Any clues about what she might try next?
I don't think this is true. If she wants to get into the Federal courts she is going to have to pursue a Federal case from the start.
Maybe the lawyers here on FR can chime in, but I don't think the Federal courts can hear an appeal of a state court ruling.
A stiff drink of hemlock, I would hope.
gonna be a bunch of snowflakes there.... hope the snowflakes like the real snoflakes
I paraphrased from the source. Not really sure.
Jill Stein is like the ‘dead’ Glenn Close rising with the butcher knife from the bathtub... can’t remember the name of the women stalker movie.
CA6 isn’t going to over-rule the district court decision that halted the recount. It barely let it continue the first time they heard the case.
The PA judge will give his decision on Monday - one day before safe harbor.
That would be Fatal Attraction.
I hadn’t heard that and thank you for the news. I am sick and tired of these crybaby women and their sugar daddy Soros.
Good movie!!!
