I’m tweeting everyone on the #WIRecount hashtag this:
9.01(1)(ag)3. No petition for which a fee is required is valid unless proper calculated/estimated fee is paid at...filing.
That’s right. I am looking forward to hearing a big “Nyet” from the board. This contention by Stein is frivolous too.
I thought the earliest they could petition was Tuesday and if successful counting wouldn’t start until Thursday.
They should refuse Jill Stein’s request. She got 1% of the vote. How does she have standing to make the request. If Hillary wants a recount make her ask for one and pay for it.
So, was the estimated fee not paid?
Trump needs to zealously investigate the collusion between Hillary and Stein. This most surely exists, and is likely illegal.
You are 100% right on!
I hate it when I post poor grammar and badly punctuated sentences. Preview would help but I'm always a little too fast on the draw! Stupid button pusher.

We have assembled an internal team to direct the recount, we have been in close consultation with our county clerk partners, and have arranged for legal representation by the Wisconsin Department of Justice, Haas said. We plan to hold a teleconference meeting for county clerks next week and anticipate the recount will begin late in the week after the Stein campaign has paid the recount fee, which we are still calculating.
WI tell her to go fish and be done with this sideshow and lets get on with reclaiming America.
No. Stein was too late (they called the office Wed.) and served the petition 2 hours before 5 PM Fri. There was no time to estimate the fee as Stein’s and La Rocha’s requests were too sweeping and vague.
> So, was the estimated fee not paid?
I’ve been wondering about this too.
Even though Jillary supposedly raised $7 million electronically, it normally takes several days/weeks to ACTUALLY put your hands on the CASH.
What did she use to pay for the recount — an IOU??
Wisconsin places no such provisions - anyone who receive a vote can ask for a recount. PA is the real firewall, as Stein will have to make a prima facie case that fraud exists - the other option of petitioning on a precinct level is no longer an option, the deadline for that was 11/21.
I wonder if the donors for this effort are eligible for a refund.
She had to pay the estimated cost for the recount BEFORE petitioning. It says so right here https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/9/01
9.01(1)(ag)3
No, it was on her website NO REFUNDS
I wondered about that as well. I haven't seen any 'reporters' address this question.
