This is contrary to Wisconsin law.
Wis. Stat. § 9.01(1)(a)2.b
[Each verified petition under subd. 1. shall state all of the following:] That the petitioner is informed and believes that a mistake or fraud has been committed in a specified ward or municipality in the counting and return of the votes cast for the office or upon the question or that another specified defect, irregularity, or illegality occurred in the conduct of the election.

Stein has presented no factual basis to believe that a mistake or fraud has been committed in the counting and return of the votes cast.
Neither Stein nor Halderman have specified a defect, irregularity, or illegality has occurred in the conduct of the election.
Stein and Halderman have presented what-if scenarios (see Item 8 in Haldermans affidavit). They have also exaggerated and lied in order to cast fear and doubt into the public's mind.
Theyre fishing.
Stein’s petition:
2. The Petitioner is informed and believes that an irregularity has occurred...
3. The Petitioner is informed and believes that:
g. “A hand count of paper ballots [] are necessary to make this determination”
Rather than presenting evidence of an irregularity in the conduct of the election and therefore requesting a recount, Stein wants a recount in order to determine if there is an irregularity.

Blood of tyrants, here’s info on Wisconsin rules on recounts!
> Theyre fishing.
Agreed. It’s a long shot, but now they have $3 million+ to feed to their lawyers. They may have been shopping for judges favorable to their cause since the election, too.
As others have noted, Stein/Hillary may be attempting to sabotage the Electoral College vote on December 19.
They seemingly picked three states which they believe they can tie up via re-counts and legal proceedings so that their Electors can’t vote on December 19 — to keep Trump below the 270 threshold needed to win.
