There is NEVER a decision made to “stop counting.” This is total BS. ALL votes are counted before the final tally is certified in each state.
If you stopped and thought for ONE SECOND you should realize that Trump/Clinton are not the ONLY things on the ballot. Many other races are and they all have their own margins of victory. NO ONE is comparing the “margin” in every race and making a decision to “stop counting” in some cases. This is simply urban legend BS.
Thank you for the acknowledgement of how elections are really counted. Why in the world would anyone believe that a county would arbitrarily quit counting votes because of one race out of 20? In our state, there is a process called a “canvass” where the county commissioners meet a week after the election to review and certify the election, by examining that the number of signed poll slips corresponds to the number of votes cast, etc. Every single absentee ballot that was postmarked by election day is entered into the counts. They discuss and vote, for each ballot individually, whether to accept or reject each single “provisional ballot” (i.e. paper ballot given to person which is then challenged for trying to vote but not appearing on precinct’s voter roll). This process takes days even in a small county.
It would be illegal to “decide to quit counting”.
As usual, you are not aware that voting statutes are highly variable from state to state.
Indeed, a state is not going to wait until all votes are counted before certifying certain election results.
All that any state’s Secretary of State needs to know before certifying the election results of a presidential contest is that the votes still outstanding are less than the winning margin.
For a presidential election year, there are different deadlines to abide by.
A state’s Secretary of State is not going to wait for all ballot issues, and all candidates running for office to be clear in a winning margin before certifying the winner of the presidential vote.
Each SOS has to certify to the states electors who won the presidential vote. Then they can move on to certifying other election matters. It’s not all done in one sitting.
A state SOS is not going to delay certifying the states presidential vote because they are waiting for say the results of some land commissioner to be finalized.
Eventually, all votes get counted but not all are counted by the certification deadlines. That’s the issue here.
So for Wisconsin, their self-imposed deadline for certifying to the state’s electors the presidential vote is December 13. If all the votes have not been counted by then, the certification will not be delayed unless the number of votes remaining to be counted are more than the winning margin. If that’s not the case, the presidential election will be certified even though there are still votes to be counted.
What recent reports say is that Trump’s winning margin has been reduced because of ‘data entry error’.
Thus, if Trump’s winning margin continues to be reduced to less than the number of votes still to be counted, then the ordered recount must count all the votes. Therefore, a ‘switch out’ is poised to be set in motion by election thieves because the votes still outstanding can tip the state to Clinton.
And if you believe election theft is a conspiracy theory, then you really should get up to speed.
So specifically Trump led by more than 13,000 votes in WI but it was reduced to a little more than 10,000 as vote counting continued. But still there are about 8,000 votes to be counted and not all of them will be for Clinton. So Trump wins and the results are certified by the deadline.
But what if the report of reducing Trump’s total by 5,000 is true based on an alleged data entry error? Then Clinton would have to win more than 6,500 of say 8,000 votes still to be counted in order to win Wisconsin.
So of say 8,000 votes remaining to be counted, 6,500 votes go to Clinton and 1,500 to Trump.
Likely? No.
Would the democrats do it anyway? Um, yep.
They not only would do it, they have done it and I lived through it in each of their more than 18 separate occasions of finding yet more votes for the democrat during the counting of absentees by parolees monitored by a democrat parole officer who snickered at what a cake walk it was.
All that needs to be done to make this fraud work is to reduce the winning margin and that was what was reported today.
Now comes reports that Stein was receiving millions and millions in a few hours of time via bots with funds stemming from Soros.
Would Soros fund Stein for all these recounts? Is that also BS? Is it a conspiracy kook theory?
All these reports are patterns expected by democrat operatives who are accustomed to stealing whatever election they desire to steal. We are going to see if these reports are true.
But two facts are incontrovertible. One is that Stein received huge amounts of money in suspicious intervals of time and the other is that Wisconsin is going to do a full hand recount of close to 5 million votes even though Trump’s winning margin exceeds the votes still to be counted, unless of course his winning margin can somehow be reduced which according to reports may be in the works.
