Independent candidate files for recount of sample of Nevada presidential ballots (in key counties)
LV Review Journal ^ | November 29, 2016 | SANDRA CHEREB

Posted on 11/29/2016 7:47:43 PM PST by bobsunshine

Roque “Rocky” De La Fuente, an independent candidate for president who garnered less than 1 percent of the vote in Nevada, filed late Tuesday for a recount of a sample of the state’s presidential ballots.

De La Fuente identified 93 precincts to be recounted and paid $14,154.98 to the secretary of state’s office ahead of the 5 p.m. deadline to cover the cost.

.......

In a statement Tuesday, De La Fuente said he ran in the Democratic presidential primary, then ran in the general election in various states as an independent and as the nominee of both the Reform Party and the American Delta Party in “an effort to champion election reform.”

Under state law, the secretary of state’s office has five days to complete a recount of the precincts requested — two each in Carson City, Douglas, Mineral and Nye counties and the rest in Clark County, the state’s population hub and home to about 2 million people.

If the recount shows a discrepancy equal to or greater than 1 percent for either De La Fuente or Clinton, a full recount of all ballots in the state will be ordered, said Wayne Thorley, elections deputy for the secretary of state’s office.

“If it shows yes there was a discrepancy, we’ll recount the entire state,” Thorley said.

The difference is 2.2% between Trump and Hillary. What is to be gained?

You can recount 93 precincts for $14 grand?

Maybe they’re using illegal alien labor...

"The difference is 2.2% between Trump and Hillary. What is to be gained?"

There were lots and lots of voting irregularities if not overt fraud. Harry Reid's state -- so of course it would be expected.

This is good news for Trump voters. Most of the recount is being done in Clark County where Las Vegas is located. Clark Co. went heavily for Hillary and it’s Harry Reid’s stomping grounds.

I wouldn’t be surprised to find significant vote fraud in Clark County, although maybe the recount process won’t reveal it, unless maybe it’s related to illegal aliens voting, in which case maybe they can check registrations, etc., but in any case, it could possibly get interesting.

Harry Reid very much wanted his seat to be filled by a Democrat successor, and it was, and Hillary won Nevada as well, even though the RCP final average favored Trump and Trump outperformed his RCP number everywhere else.

As I said, this is good news. Nothing for Trump supporters to sneer at.

I'm in Douglas County and I think it's hysterical that they're recounting.

I pray that Harry Reid's vote fraud is uncovered and Trump wins NV! Bwahahahaha!

The Liberals will never accept Trump as President. I expect assassination attempts throughout his Presidency. We have been in a cold civil war. Now it is turning hot.

Interesting, if true. Do you have any evidence that it is? Also, how would the recount process pick that up? You’d have to examine the registrations themselves I would think.

To illustrate the importance of Clark County, Hillary won there by around 80,000 votes. The only other county she won was the one Reno is located in and that by only around 3,000 votes. The rest of the state was solid read, sometimes at the 70%+ level, but the majority of Nevada’s population is in Clark County where Las Vegas is located.

I don’t know if a recount will delve into ineligible votes/voters, but if it does it could really get interesting. Of the 93 precincts being recounted, about 85 are in Clark Co. Anyone know the total number of precincts in that county?

Tie up Trump's resources. If they get recounts going in several states, he might not have enough good legal people to cover all locations at once. Brute force approach.

You don’t get it. Trump lost Nevada. He’s not going to be sending any legal teams there unless he senses an opportunity to uncover some of those 3 million illegal alien voters he tweeted about.

This is good news because Harry Reid just might have stolen Nevada and a recount could shed some light on the matter. I doubt it will, but it might.

If Trump doesn't have people there watching, they can claim they found massive attempts at pro-Trump fraud, and throw other states into question and generate more chaos.

Clark County- Wow!

Recounting Herry Reid’s ‘Pocket Borough’, that could be very interesting.
