Experts Urge Clinton Campaign to Challenge Election Results in 3 Swing States

By

Hillary Clinton is being urged by a group of prominent computer scientists and election lawyers to call for a recount in three swing states won by Donald Trump, New York has learned. The group, which includes voting-rights attorney John Bonifaz and J. Alex Halderman, the director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, believes they’ve found persuasive evidence that results in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania may have been manipulated or hacked. The group is so far not speaking on the record about their findings and is focused on lobbying the Clinton team in private.

Last Thursday, the activists held a conference call with Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta and campaign general counsel Marc Elias to make their case, according to a source briefed on the call. The academics presented findings showing that in Wisconsin, Clinton received 7 percent fewer votes in counties that relied on electronic-voting machines compared with counties that used optical scanners and paper ballots. Based on this statistical analysis, Clinton may have been denied as many as 30,000 votes; she lost Wisconsin by 27,000. While it’s important to note the group has not found proof of hacking or manipulation, they are arguing to the campaign that the suspicious pattern merits an independent review — especially in light of the fact that the Obama White House has accused the Russian government of hacking the Democratic National Committee.

According to current tallies, Trump has won 290 Electoral College votes to...

Does Shrillary want to have California & New York & NEVADA recounted & EVERY single REGISTRATION card in those states verified against citizen records?? I am pretty damn sure that Illegals have been voting in Nevada for some time—Clark County & Washoe County in particular.

The massive voter fraud that has been the handiwork of the Dems for years didn’t overcome the anger of American voters.

The Dems want to steal the election? Get ready to fight & keep your powder dry!!!

Yes, whiny leftist losers with wet diapers from pissing themselves silly over the election.

Their goal is the “nullification” of the presidential election, the destruction of the Electoral College, and to use unchecked breeding and immigration to get the numbers needed to always win a popular vote election, and then make it into law.

As for “experts”, I consulted a great political figure for advise (the Democrat Party symbol), and it said, “Experts my ass, we got our butts handed to us on a platter”.

Did Gore concede before his recount requests? Isn’t the fact she conceded basically end all debate?

It is not the first time they tried and got away with this trick. When Rossi lost to Gregoire in Washington state, she got a recount, that then put her in the lead. You would then think Rossi could demand another count, but no.

Makes common sense to me. If I am doing a cash count at my store and come up with $1.50, then my partner counts again and gets $1.49, I'm not just going to take his word for it, but will count a third time.

.....

Were this year’s deviations from pre-election polls the results of a cyberattack? Probably not. I believe the most likely explanation is that the polls were systematically wrong, rather than that the election was hacked.

I don't know.

What I do know is that Gore was on his way to concede when he got a message on his new blackberry (they had just come out) and ws told in so many words that they could steal the election.

So we went to the streets until he was stopped.

Free Republic people went in to locked rooms in Florida where cheaters were punching chads for Gore and putting Bush votes in Gore's count.

The freepers were called an "angry crowd"

I think we need to have a thread to look at the motivation behind this and the fact that these were the three states that Hillary needed to win.

What do they expect to accomplish with the recount?
