Jill Stein is continuing her push to investigate the integrity of the U.S. electoral system, with lawyers for the former Green Party presidential candidate asking Attorney General Loretta Lynch to probe the issue.
"We write to urge the Department of Justice to launch an investigation into the integrity of our nation’s election system generally, and our nation’s voting machines specifically, based on the information we discovered in the course of this representation," reads the letter from Stein's counsel dated Friday.
"The attempted recount process has uncovered that voting machines relied on in these states and across the country are prone to human and machine error, especially in under-resourced black and brown communities, and vulnerable to tampering and hacking," the letter continued.
"The recount also found that the states' efforts to protect their systems may be insufficient, particularly in low-income communities and communities of color. Each of these grave concerns warrants federal intervention," it added.
Stein raised millions after the November election for a recount in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, traditionally blue states where Republican Donald Trump pulled out slim wins over Democratic Hillary Clinton
.
The Green Party recount efforts in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania were shut down by courts while a recount in Michigan affirmed Trump's victory in the state, with the president-elect picking up more than 100 additional votes in the recount.
Recounts uncovered no widespread voter fraud or hacking.
Election results from The Associated Press show that Stein received 1.1 percent of the vote in Michigan and Wisconsin and 0.8 percent of the vote in Pennsylvania.
Yeah....I’m sure they wrap this up before Jan 20th.
The lunatic stein needs “pushed” into a mental asylum. What a complete idiot.

Jill Stein asks Loretta Lynch to probe US election system
They plan on having a report on Russian hacking by then.
Why not toss in a few fabrications about broken voting systems in key states to help de-legitimize Trumps Presidency?
Look for both reports just a couple of days prior to the Inauguration
Does Jill Stein really not get that her 15 minutes are up-or does she just not have as much money as she wanted to raise yet?
Suck up the swamp like a vacuum cleaner you Clinton scumbag!
Jill Stein is a pig dressed in a Clinton’s pantsuit!
I agree with Stein. The voting irregularities in Detroit and Wayne County Michigan the recount was revealing, before the recount was stopped, should be thoroughly investigated and the election officials responsible for any fraud uncovered in the investigation should be tried and sent to prison. Irregularities in Philadelphia should be fully investigated as well. In addition the automatic registration of illegals as voters at the time they receive a California drivers license should be identified as major voter fraud and terminated.
George Soros owns a company based in England that manufactures voting machines.
Those machines were used in sixteen states. Is Stein going to investigate those machines, some of which flipped Trump votes to Clinton during the early voting process?
It did uncover massive voter fraud on the part of the Democrat party. So, um, yes, investigate away.
She’s spent that $7 Mil already? Geez!

Justice on the basis of political influence.
She raised $7.5 million in about 2 weeks. I wish I were this much of an idiot.
Just in time to declare the election results invalid. Honestly, I wouldn’t put anything past this crowd.
She's sitting on so much donated money right now, she has to at least go through the motions of pretending like she's doing something with it.
Yep she’s got to have her name in the pot it seems
