OK, this is a little out there. I blundered into an obscure website about an hour ago that claimed that Jill Stein's recount effort was being funded by a bot. That website appeared to be toxic as it crashed my Firefox so I woun't give the link out willy-nilly. It claimed that ever since the donation page opened yesterday, that donations were entering with a nearly mathematical precision, regardless of the time of day (donations just as steady at 3: am as they were at 3:00 pm).
So I decided to do my own impromptu test and got what, I think, are very interesting results. I first logged onto JS's donation website at 3:44 PM EST this afternoon. I finally got my sampling sh%t together by 4:00 PM and took readings every 5 minutes until 4:30. These are the results I got:
Time, reading ($), delta $, Delta time (min), rate of change ($/min)
3:44, $3990,481.84, NA, NA
3:53, 4,012,481.85, $21,634.01, 9 min, $2,403.78
3:55, 4018,237.85, $6,122.00, 2 min, $3,061.00
4:00, 4,027,407.69, $9,169.84 , 5 min, $1,833.97
4:05, $4,036,133.64, 5 min, $8,725.95, $1,745.19
4:10, $4,044,530.03, 5 min, $8,396.39, $1,679.28
4:15, $4,052,919.66, 5 min, $8,389.63, $1,677.93
4:20, $4,058,634.66, 5 min, $5,715.00, $1,143.00
4:25, $4,065,474.09, 5 min, $6,839.43, $1,367.89
4:30, $4,073,973.09, 5 min, $8,499.00, $1,699.80 .
As you can see, the data is remarkably consistent. If this pattern holds, the website should hit its funding goal of $4.5 million about 8:30 PM EST tonight. Also, if you back calculate to the zero dollar point, this funding effort began about 36 hours ago, which if I am not mistaken, is very close to the truth.
These are NOT spontaneous contributions. This is a BOT programmed to make contributions at a set pace while minutely varying minute to minute rates to obscure. But these guys are not very bright, it seems.
Whose BOT is it? What account is it donating from? This stinks to high heaven.
I think you make a pretty good case. Unfortunately there won’t likely be any federal investigation of this until after January.
Seriously, who, let alone lots of people, on thanksgiving day is thinking let me break away from gatherings etc to donate to help Stein get fully funded for a recount?
I agree, collect what info you can and send to Trump’s people or someone who can do some thing more with knowing about it.
Thanks for thinking to check into this :)
Or maybe they don’t have the money, and they are making it look like others are donating, so why don’t you?
Could just be a marketing pitch to sucker people into giving her money.

Excellent work. Bookmarking. I don’t quite get what this is about but will check back.
okay, I cannot tell from what you posted, but is it showing aggregate amounts updated on a regular basis (i.e. the website refreshes donated total every 5 minutes, but the donations vary ( e.g. 10 people totaling x, 5 people totaling y). or is the amount donated hourly seem too regular (every hours worth of donations too similar- for instance over 12 or 18 hours, each hour is remarkably similar amount which I would think would be odd.
The odd donation numbers could indicate that “fraction magic” is at work...the same process used to “count” votes that have been predetermined to select a candidate by a certain percentage. So if that is true, the money is already there and a program is just throwing out numbers to make it look legit.
odd numbers would seem to show foreign donations or perhaps a donation scheme that took a percentage (i.e. processing fee).
It’s the second. The donations appear to be rhythmic, regular. The nearly same amount is donated, per time, since this funding effort started. I am not a professional fundraiser, but I would guess that real private donations ebb and flow. These do not.
Notice how the amounts are not in round dollars thus they are foreign currency translated.
Also, notice the decreasing amounts due to the strengthening of the US Dollar due to overwhelming optimism of a Trump administration.
OK that last part I added for color.
MAGA!
Reddit sub the_Donald user claims Soros bot is funding Steins challenge at $160k per hour. https://i.sli.mg/oZ0cE6.png
SOROS!
I have a dim recollection that during the early stages of the Republican primaries, specifically just before one of the debates, one of the candidates (Carson?) was accumulating likes or new followers or however these things are measured at a similar unnaturally steady pace.
it’s still possible the amounts shown are not actual donations. without knowing what is behind these numbers it’s impossible to know if they are “real” or just something designed to make people think lots of money is being donated.
Don’t forget Chinese & Saudi sourced money’s coming in.
amazing. I tweeted this info to @FrankLunz TWICE. Twitter has deleted it both times

IOW, she’s as corrupt as Obama and the Clintons.
