How does this compare to whatever worked in obtaining a fe’ral judge’s ruling in the affirmative in Michigan?
But the (Mc)CRACKEN is all wet.
And of course, the factual basis of her allegations is stunningly weak. The supposedly "easy" firmware hacking would probably require undetected physical access to thousands of voting machines stored in a locked warehouse.
Well, yeah, it’s a sea creature!..............
They are complaining about PA law. You don’t fix PA law in Federal court, you fix it in the PA legislature.
It reads like it was cut-and-pasted from rants at DU.
Agreed. I stated earlier that it seems she was getting her legal advice from the Huffington Post.
That was a fun read. Her lawyers argue that the majority of the votes in PA (those cast on DRE/touchscreen systems) are subject to tampering, espionage, and error, have no paper trail to audit or crosscheck the results, and are just plain worthless. Then they demand a recount of the machines they just wrote were unreliable and unaccountable. How will a recount of unreliable data produce a reliable result? D’oh...
Their angst over having to get a whopping three supporters per district to petition for a recount is also a major hoot. Stein probably didn’t get three votes in some districts. Couldn’t she get a few Hillary voters on board? She has no organization whatsoever.
Is his first name Phil?
LOL!..............................no...............
His entire due process argument is predicated on the argument that if the recount is granted, it would be a due process violation if the entire state can't be counted.
Absent the due process argument, he has no Constitutional footing. That argument would be mooted if the MI courts rule that there are no procedural grounds for a recount.
On top of which, it is entirely moot.
Neither she, nor any other presidential candidate has standing to petition for the per-district contested vote. Only voters themselves can ask for that, and the point of that remedy is to provide recourse where local boards have screwed up or are dishonest.
She had a judicial remedy: a statewide contested election, where candidates do have standing, which she chose to abandon.
She is literally judge shopping. Not for the best outcome, but for the best price, as in "free."
A liberal lawyer I know on Facebook said if he were the judge, he would direct the marshalls to toss the plantiffs out the door onto the sidewalk and award fees to the defendants without them asking, and start legal sanctions for misuse of the legal system. It’s that bad of a brief.
But it was okay when Obama won Philly with 100% of the votes.
