HARRISBURG - The Green Party-backed push for a recount of Pennsylvania's presidential election results will get its day in court.
Commonwealth Court on Tuesday scheduled a hearing for early next week to consider the recount effort pushed by former Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein. The hearing will be 10 a.m. Monday in Harrisburg.
Stein has raised upwards of $6 million to finance recount efforts in the three key states - Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan - that sealed President-elect Donald J. Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton.
Clinton lost by less than 100,000 votes in all three states, which have a history of backing Democrats.
Republicans have decried the effort as an act of desperation by a failed campaign. They have also promised to challenge any recount efforts. Applications to intervene must be entered by Friday.
Besides the state court petition, Stein's campaign is also helping organize recount efforts at the precinct level in at least a half dozen counties across the state.

Look, they will play every single game up until the Dec. 13 drop dead date, and the process allows that. They are being a-hole sore losers. There is only one way to stop it and that is to punish them at the ballot box. Our process makes all this allowable, if they want to be jerks and do it, they can and nothing can stop that. They have recount laws and courts available to them - every one does. That is how our system works.
When we lose, we have the same ability to be a-holes just like they are now. We are getting to the point in this country where the parties have become enemies not opponents. There is no longer a common understanding in this country between opponents. No dignity is left in the politics of this nation. Honestly, we are overdue for a major blood-letting. And these are just all signs of that coming.
Trump will win. There is no there there. But they can, if they wish to be a-hole sore losers, do all of this. And so they are.
Add the cooked polls to your list. They were part of the plan as mentioned in the wikileaks dumps.
Since the votes are cast in private, how would it be determined which candidate received the illegal ones?
It will be the key question that is asked.
Just finished reading the following about the electoral College.
“The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed.”
Is this the number voting, or is it the majority of the 538 member of the Electoral Congress?
If the three states cannot certify their election results, and appoint their members of the Electoral Congress (20-PA, MI-16, and WI-10) prior to the deadline, does this mean Trump still needs 270, or does it mean he needs a majority of the remaining electoral votes?
Deadlines:
December 13, 2016
States must make final decisions in any controversies over the appointment of their electors at least six days before the meeting of the Electors. This is so their electoral votes will be presumed valid when presented to Congress.
Decisions by states courts are conclusive, if decided under laws enacted before Election Day.
December 19, 2016
The Electors meet in their state and vote for President and Vice President on separate ballots. The electors record their votes on six Certificates of Vote, which are paired with the six remaining Certificates of Ascertainment.
The electors sign, seal, and certify six sets of electoral votes.
Who’s the judge. Is he an actvist?
It hasn't stopped the Democrats from doing it again, has it? Except they are using a puppet (Stein) to do the dirty work, hoping that the public won't see through the sham, and blame the Dems. Of course with the MSM constantly covering for the DEMs, almost half the population will drink the Kool-Ade.
Backing out the electoral votes for MI, WI and PA, Trump will still have 260 votes against Hitlery’s 232. This is all in vain for the rats.
