GOP files complaint alleging Clinton, Stein coordinated in Wisconsin recount
WBAY TV/Young Broadcasting of Green Bay, Inc. ^ | 11.30.16

Posted on 12/01/2016 9:47:05 AM PST by Behind Liberal Lines

The complaint contends that Stein only received 31,006 votes in Wisconsin — so Clinton is the only person who could benefit from a recount.

The complaint also alleges Clinton appears to have illegally helped Stein raise nearly $7 million for the recounts in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan — double the amount Stein raised for her own presidential campaign. It says the Clinton campaign also emailed supporters looking for volunteers to help the recount, something Stein’s campaign didn’t do.

Stein should be prosecuted for violating the Election Law. Maybe she'll even give us Clinton/Soros. Even if she doesn't it's time to get tough with libtards.

Like everything else at the FEC this will die in a blaze of partisan gridlock.

Wisconsin law is murky. Any candidate has standing to file for a recount, but objections are allowed. It’s not clear to me whether standing can be based on vote totals. But if collusion between candidates is illegal, this could blow the thing out of the water.

For possibly important perspective (excerpted from Wikipedia)

In January 2014, D'Souza was indicted on charges of making illegal contributions to a 2012 United States Senate campaign, a felony under U.S. law... On May 20, 2014, D'Souza pleaded guilty in Federal Court to one charge of using a "straw donor" to make an illegal political campaign donation. On September 23, D'Souza was sentenced to eight months in a halfway house near his home in San Diego, five years probation, and a $30,000 fine

Just curious, might this "straw donor" felony (or something quite similar) apply here?.

Of course they colluded. Hillary instigated this recount through Stein.

These laws, like most others, don't apply to Hillary.

Not sure, if the concept has to do with circumventing contribution limits.

But Clinton has not filed and is still recruiting volunteers for recounts through her campaign organization. This would seem to be campaign collusion which is a violation of federal election law

Wouldn’t it be great if Wiki released emails on this.

If not, the evidence is overwhelming.

I agree, there is plain prima facie evidence of coordination, if not finance.

In Michigan, Stein hired Mark Brewer to head up the recount for her campaign. Brewer is the former chairman of the Michigan Democrat Party for 18 years 1995-2013. He is still listed as a member of the DNC.

The Detroit Free Press identifies him in yesterday’s story as just an attorney representing Stein.

Yeah, no coordination going on here in Michigan, nothing to see here folks, move along, move along...
