Is the recount going to be denied? Not that it will ultimately matter in the end, but please let it be so!!!
I think there is an easy solution to this.
First off, a recount will not determine irregularities in voting. Second, if that is not the case, then Stein is asking for a recount based on votes for and against... Stein. As I see it, unless a PAC is paying for this, which they aren’t, contributions to Stein need to meet FEC laws. This means, anything over 2k for Stein is an illegal contribution and cannot be accepted by Wisconsin as payment for the recount.
What would be illegal about it?
That is the loophole they need to tell her to go pound sand.
LOL!!! What suckers. I hope they dug deep into their savings for this money. Maybe their tattoo fund or sex-change savings.
I hope so
” Wisconsin law allows any candidate to seek a recount. The candidate has to pay if he or she lost by more than 0.25%, hence Stein’s fundraising. She estimates a Wisconsin recount would cost $1.1 million.”
Another excellent point.
The estimated fee has not even been estimated yet.
If I was a RAT election supervisor, I would be very wary of this. Sure, they might want the recount to be successful, but there is a 99.9% chance that DJT will be President in a few weeks. And there will be punishment for those who tried to cheat him...
Bump
“It smells like desperation.”
I don’t see it this way, through the lens of Stein. Her Green Party requested a recount in 2004 (Ohio). I see this as no different...she raises a ton of money, and is able to fund her party for the next 4 years. I think the last thing she cares about is actually counting votes - she’s just scamming HRC supporters out of money.
The recount in Pennsylvania is extremely unlikely to occur. The other two (WI and MI) shouldn’t happen either. Stein got very few votes and should have no standing!
But she will—as she stated in her “appeal” take the money and run. I wonder what she will use it for.
PHOOEY!!!!
All these vote-deniers should move to CA, secede, and have H be prez there.
Will Jill have to pay taxes on this free money ?
No
Where is the Wisconsin Board of Elections and Secretary of State? No one in sight to determine if this request is legal, valid, required under law, without proof of wrongdoing or up front payment for the service!!! The Secretary of State reports to Governor, Scott Walker....where is he? Hello....Wisconsin....we the American people are awaiting someone with a backbone & spine enough, to step forward and throw Obama, Stein & Clinton back in the acid cesspool they all belong!!!
“No, it was on her website NO REFUNDS”
How else can she pay for a house on the lake? Goldarn it! Hillary gave one to Bernie, and Jill wants a piece of the action!
Just heard that estimated fee for recount must be paid by tomorrow. The Stein campaign says they raised the money, but is that in pledges or cash? We will se tomorrow as Wisconsin will not accept pledges.
She will have the money per Soros
