Note to the GOP - and Trump - re recounts (vanity)
me

Posted on 12/06/2016 10:42:39 AM PST by Leaning Right

So Jill Stein is demanding three state recounts, for "election integrity" as she says. Odd that she is only targeting states where Trump won by razor-thin margins. Why not also recount New Hampshire (Hillary by 0.4%)?

I hope that the next time something like this happens, the GOP immediately demands a recount as well, but of those states the Democrats barely won.

ATTENTION:

Wisconsin board of elections has just posted an updated spreadsheet.

This appears to be through midnight last night (Monday night).

I see on the spreadsheet 1,746,943 now having been recounted. This is over 60% of the 2.9 million votes to be recounted.

Repeat— Wisconsin is over 60% complete in their recount.

I now see reports from Madison (Dane County) wards appearing. No significant variance from election day night results.

Some of the Milwaukee County (Milwaukee City) wards are now updating to 100% in that their absentees must have been counted and show no particular variance from election day night.

There are some freepers with better Excel skills than mine so I’ll let them do the absentee exclusions (for wards who have posted partial results pending their absentees).

My total vote count is accurate. Over 60% of the 2.9 million have been recounted. These cheeseheads are going to hit their deadline.

Yes, in Nevada there is proof of voter fraud.

Ain't gonna be any such states; likely a clean sweep by Trump (or Pence).

Trump and team recognize the mire of Stein for what it is and will not stoop when they already know she will fail.

What I would rather see is a demand to document the validity of votes, i.e., how many illegals voted, how many unregistered voters, how many votes from people registered in multiple states or multiple precincts, etc. Then build the case to - once and for all - clean up voter registration rolls and implement and enforce voter ID requirements.

The Republican party is missing an opportunity here. They should use recounts to obtain evidence of voter fraud so that they can convince Congress to pass laws to verify id. In California I hear some cities are considering allowing people who are under 18 or who are “undocumented” to vote in local elections. I’m not an expert on election laws but I wonder how would one separate people who are eligible to vote in local elections from people who are eligible to vote for the president. I believe those cities are depending on the honor system for voters to police themselves.

Why go through the state recount process when you can get a favorite federal district court to order it for free.

I’d demanded recounts in NH, NV, NM.

Blow it wide open and ask for every state that Clinton won.

Her explanation is that it's too late to contest those results. Of course, that hasn't stopped her from contesting Pennsylvania's results.
