I have questioned why:

1. These recount requests were not being done right after election day. If it was so clear to Jill Stein and her henchmen that they had problems with results, why the need to wait so long??

2. What specific allegations about election procedures are they making here? The margins of victory in each state are exponentially higher than the maximum margin ever overcome by any recount in history. Do they really think the outcome can change?

3. Why is Jill Stein, who got about 1% of the vote, allowed to request a recount which can never result in her winning g the election??

4. As far as election integrity and all that, can’t we study that subject without doing a pointless recount??

We should square the voter rolls in Rat Urban Utopias.

As far as #2 and #3...

“...It would take a 3-1 vote by the evenly divided board of two Democrats and two Republicans to stop the recount.

But the elections panel, which has scheduled a 9:30 a.m. Friday hearing in Lansing on Trump’s objection, has a long history of deadlocking on highly partisan issues. A 2-2 deadlock vote would cause the recount to go forward after two business days, likely starting Wednesday.”

So Stein will get her recount because Dems on the board vote for her to get it, regardless of whether she is actually aggrieved or the count would be changed.
A court could reverse the Board’s decision, but the Board has very broad authority.

If she was really interested in the "integrity", she would also challenge NH and Minnesota... Why is she solely challenging the states won by Trump?

She's a disgraceful lying hypocrite.
