The end is in sight. No way this gets the green light. And that isn't just my opinion, but that of a liberal lawyer friend who thinks Jill Stein is a flaming idiot.

[Verginius Rufus]

December 9th is five days before December 13th?

[goldstategop]

Stein wants a recount from here to eternity.

Diamond should tell her to STFU and go home.

[dirtboy]

Inquirer math.

[Bulwinkle]

And who would do the forensic computer examination... Hillary's computer guys?

[Timmy]

Judge should just rule that feds have no jurisdiction per the constitution.

[Texan5]

These people really do want another Florida 2000 fiasco, don’t they? They must not realize how very, very little patience the rest of us have with doing that s*** again...

[Genoa]

Using the inclusive method of reckoning: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 being five days, fractions counted as a full day.

[Genoa]

Jill Stein lacks standing as she is not properly aggrieved, nor has she exhausted all appropriate avenues of redress at the state level.

[dirtboy]

There is no provision in PA law for a forensic exam. And to get a recount you have to make a prima facie case that something actually happened - and Jill Stein has publicly admitted they have no such evidence. Which IMO is the reason she dropped the PA state-level suit, and is pursuing this approach at the federal level.

[dirtboy]

Aggrieved is not part of the PA legal language, that is MI. She is basically asking the federal court to re-write PA law by requiring a forensic exam which is nowhere to be found in PA election law. This is DOA.

[roostercogburn]

By him saying today, that he will hear a case, that is extremely time sensitive, in three days tells us how he’s gonna rule.
Pennsylvania is locked down.

[dirtboy]

If he’s the judge hearing the case on Friday, he’s a Bush appointee.

[Secret Agent Man]

Jills so-called experts....

[Hugin]

At least the judge is a Bush appointee, not a Clinton crony,

[arl295]

Hillary’s email server guy

haha

what joke that group is

[Pikachu_Dad]

Alternatively just one full business day

[piytar]

Does this bitch Stein think she can actually win for Hillary or is she just filling her bank account?

And does she have any idea of the consequences if she pulls off this coup for Hillary?!

[ChessExpert]

“And who would do the forensic computer examination... Hillary’s computer guys?”

Very funny, except it could be true.

[StAnDeliver]

He has to hear it. And then he has to deny it. Then she has to appeal to the Third Circuit OR appeal for cert to SCOTUS. That's Alito's assignment lol.
