Trump Moves To Block Recounts Nationwide, Says Stein Has ‘No Evidence’
The Daily Caller ^ | 12/02/16 | Phillip Stucky

Posted on 12/03/2016 5:09:20 AM PST by Enlightened1

Representatives of President-elect Donald Trump are challenging recount motions in Pennsylvania and Michigan, according to Politico.

“Despite being no more than a blip on the electoral radar, Stein has now commandeered Pennsylvania’s electoral process, with an eye toward doing the same to the Electoral College,” the complaint filed Thursday states. “There is no evidence — or even an allegation — that any tampering with Pennsylvania’s voting systems actually occurred.”

Green Party candidate Jill Stein is responsible for pushing the recount efforts in those states, and called Trump’s motion “outrageous.”

“The recount in Michigan, which has been driven by an outpouring of grassroots support in the state — will go forward,” she said. “The Michigan Board of State Canvassers and Director of Elections has been a model of professionalism in moving this recount forward in an efficient, transparent manner. Yet the Trump campaign’s cynical efforts to delay the recount and create unnecessary costs for taxpayers are shameful and outrageous.”

“...This happens all the time, and it’s not part of some election-rigging conspiracy. Democrats pick up thousands of votes this way between Election Day and the final vote counts all the time. It’s because there are simply far more Democrats than Republicans who are dumb as bags of rocks and either show up at the wrong place to vote or can’t figure out their home address.”

Its FRAUD.

[There is a reason the Republican Party is called the stupid party.]

They are slaves of the money they love and the minions of the left, pretty boy Ryan is an example of a rino sold out to special interests, his own. He is so evil and it is a shame he controls the house. He is the Harry Reid of the rinos in the house. We really do need a third party to replace the rino republicans who have sold their souls.

I’ve read nothing about Dane county that would suggest a different outcome.

Its not the outcome that counts - its the delay until aftert the deadline which will make WI’s EC votes null.

[She is also an idiot, messing with the future..]

She is for her sisters who are generally lesbians and all who hate men and love power and money and who love rinos like pretty boy Ryan.
She is of the sisterhood of the travelling pants, all who live off taxpayers who they despise. And she is evil as her sisters HRC, Nancy P., and Pocahontas.

How legitimate were those 20,000 provisional and absentee ballots in PA that were finally accepted? How do we know the voter didn’t vote in two different polling places or vote their dead relatives?

That's why it takes almost a month to post the final results. They actually do examine them all.

The typical scenario with a provisional ballot is this: A voter shows up to vote on Election Day in the wrong precinct. There is no record of them among the registered voters in that precinct, so they are permitted to cast a ballot that is set aside and is only counted if it is later verified as a legitimate vote after the election staff confirms that they ARE legally registered in their home precinct.

These cases usually involve newly registered voters, and stupid people who can't even read the instructions that are mailed to them telling them where to vote.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that most people who find themselves in this situation are Democrats, which is why most of these "found" votes in the final tallies end up being added to the Democratic candidates' totals.

Yeah - Stein has standing and makes a lot of sense - she was on Fox last week and made the inane statement that "you don't have evidence until you look into it" as a "rationale" for doing the recounts.

Dems are trying to numb us to the corruption they are wreaking on the system.

I’m guessing they found a few boxes of uncounted absentee ballots in the basement of the courthouse. It happens here in Bernalillo County every election.

I just saw an article saying they have uncovered massive voter fraud in Clark County, NV. Of course most of us knew that was happening.

No, it's not. With all due respect, you have no idea what you're talking about.

I absolutely agree that our elections are rife with fraud, but it's in the registration and voting process, not the vote counting process.

[Once President Trump gets in they need to put a lid on all this election fraud.]

The best way to deal with election fraud ties in with beginning illegal alien deportation immediately, than the democrats would only have ballot stuffing and multi voting left to them and Donald Trump would have the 5 more states he won.

Dude -- If it was that easy to nullify a state's electoral votes, this country would have had 0 electoral votes cast in every election over the last 200 years.

The results in all three of these states have been certified. Any "delays" in the process will simply result in the state certifying the electors from the most recent published vote counts.

It’s exactly the same as obama when he won in 2008. they did not want to hear anything from Republicans.

If it goes to congress, Trump still wins. Then republicans (if they had any sense) repeat over and over how the voters in those states were disenfranchised.

As long as the results are the same, I will be okay. If people steal the election. They don’t want a war.

either be overturned or disenfranchised (electors will not be allowed to vote). Either way, HRC will be who gets installed on 20 Jan.

If the electors are not appointed then Trump wins. The only way she can win is if all 3 states are overturned.

This will go on forever. The communists liberals know nothing but corrupt the system until they win. Filthy Democrats should not be in this Country.
