Hillary Clinton Decides to Undermine Democracy With Jill Stein MELISSA MACKENZIE November 26, 2016

Today, Hillary Clinton announced that she would join Jill Stein’s challenge of the Wisconsin vote count.

Marc Elias, counsel to Hillary Clinton wrote this:

Beyond the post-election audit, Green Party candidate Jill Stein announced Friday that she will exercise her right as a candidate to pursue a recount in the state of Wisconsin. She has indicated plans to also seek recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan.

Because we had not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, we had not planned to exercise this option ourselves, but now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides. If Jill Stein follows through as she has promised and pursues recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, we will take the same approach in those states as well. We do so fully aware that the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states:Michigan well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount. But regardless of the potential to change the outcome in any of the states, we feel it is important, on principle, to ensure our campaign is legally represented in any court proceedings and represented on the ground in order to monitor the recount process itself.

So much for the fear of undermining the democratic process.

I suspect this was her role in this election all along. To call for recounts when they realized they hadn't padded Queen Hillary's vote by enough.

It certainly wasn't to win the Presidency as even I could have predicted her poor showing.

On Jill Stein’s website
https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/recount
it says:
“We cannot guarantee a recount will happen in any of these states we are targeting. We can only pledge we will demand recounts in those states.

If we raise more than what’s needed, the surplus will also go toward election integrity efforts and to promote voting system reform.”

So who gets the money they don’t use?

Do you honestly believe Trump isn’t aware of what’s going here? Seriously?

Trump didn’t get to where he is as a businessman or President Elect by not being informed and aware. Trump is well aware of what is taking place right now. He’s given me NO reason to NOT trust him.

There is a reason Trump is not talking about this...at least right now. Trust me, he and his team are well aware of what is taking place and have a plan.

Note also they do this on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, when no one (except people like us) is paying attention...

We use touch screen thingies here in PA, that seem “computer-like”.

I’ll be happier when Trump is inaugurated. These feints at a coup are unsettling.

Yes, let’s make it a legal request so that we don’t have to pay for it.
