Jill Stein, the green partys candidate in the US presidential election, is due to formally file a motion for a recount in Wisconsin on Friday as her funding effort for counting the votes again in three states passed $4.9m.
As more money flooded in for her effort which aims to fund recounts in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all states where Donald Trump narrowly beat Hillary Clinton she admitted she had no hard evidence of fraud but said the systems were vulnerable.
Her campaign team said it would formally file in Wisconsin before the 5pm ET deadline to do so; the recount motion deadlines for the other two states are next week.
The fundraising site explained that Steins campaign could not guarantee any of these states would have a recount. We can only pledge we will demand recounts in those states, the site said. If we raise more than whats needed, the surplus will also go toward election integrity efforts and to promote voting system reform.
Her effort has split liberals, with some energized by the potential to show defeated Democrat Clinton is the rightful election winner, and those who see Steins intervention as an expensive gimmick to promote the Green party.
On Friday, Stein said she was acting due to compelling evidence of voting anomalies and that data analysis had indicated significant discrepancies in vote totals that were released by state authorities.
We do not have a smoking gun, Stein told CNN. On the other hand, we have a system that invites hacking, tampering and malfeasance.

I also thoguht jill was more anti Hillary than anti Trump. Maybe she is trying to find a way to pocket 5 Million of Soros money.
Michigan had their recount already and Trump still won by over 10,000 votes.
There is also an idiot Texas Elector saying he might not vote Trump. If thats the case then this thing goes to the House... RIGGED!!!
I AM NOW A PIT BULL ON THIS TOPIC.
I'm contacting True The Vote, joining, and becoming extremely active.
They will work on Trump, and he will fix this.
It probably took some time to “fabricate” those “lost Hillary Clinton Votes” found in closet!
Source, please.
If thats the case then this thing goes to the House... RIGGED!!!
Nope. Not even close to the 36 they'd need.
Not a recount, just finished the count with all 83 counties certified. Certification by Board of Electors Mon., Nov. 28.
Michigan’s Secretary of State reported this Wednesday, Nov. 23.
“Jill Stein has no chance of winning, her request should be denied.”
yeah, no standing.
” trying to delegitimize the election”
yep. the alt-left will claim the election was “stolen”.
I think Stein is front for Soros or Hillary...What good does a recount do the very distant 3rd place finisher?
Someone posted a thread about money feeding into Stein’s campaign by a Bot...

What STANDING does she have to demand this?
Indeed, the left will claim the election was ‘stolen’..in fact they already are beginning to do just that! you are correct
but of course if the Soros/DNC/Left didn’t try to get rid of reasonable voter ID laws ..... then stealing elections would be almost impossible
they make the elections open to fraud because they’re usually the ones who steal our elections (in big cities mostly like Philadelphia, Detroit, LA, St Louis, Milqwaukee, Chicago, etc)
I believe Mr Trump won honestly. But IF a R candidate ever steals an election, it will be because the Soros/DNC conspiracy made it possible!
>> As the late Carl Sagan stated, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.
The greenhouse effect guy?
Okay, so they look through the counties that used machines. This sounds like Gore only counting Florida counties in which he’d be the strongest. What about all the illegal alien votes? Will they eliminate those, too?
1.Bots have automatically donated to Jill Stein websites for the recount.
http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2016/11/jill-steins-election-recount-is-being-paid-for-by-a-bot-3442882.html
2. Soros is behind this huge scheme to recount 3 state to flip the election to Hillary, they have everything set up , new votes will pop up , changes will be made .
3.Soros is using bots to send automated donations to Steins site so shell have 7 million real soon to recount all 3 states . not too many real liberal donating its
soros bots (automated robot programs)
4. The media is going with the lie that Stein just wants a recount . yeah sure in the 3 states that would flip the election for Hillary
5.Some websites did analysis and it was $160,000 per hour every hour at 3 am in the morning too. so no liberals are up donating to Stein's website.
6. Im on twitter and Im going to tweet everyone in the Trump organization from Trump on down, then youtube then reddit.
If we all do this we can stop this Soros from stealing the election with automated bots and his paid off Stein, paid off scientists and others ready to flip the states for Hillary
All of a sudden us conservatives are arguing that the voting is not rigged. I believe there are numerous fraudulent events in the past and we should be careful and measured in how we respond to this.
More transparency and sunlight is a good thing :). Just think of what good information can be gleaned from a recount effort like this about potential voting fraud issues. I have at least 4 concerns on this. (1) any recount has to be done completely fairly statewide, not just picking and choosing precincts, counties, or types of ballots that have bias risk, (2) it be done within the pre-existing rules (Al Gore lost in court in 2000 because he tried to change the rules after-the-fact), (3) process needs to be done transparently, (4) since she is picking and choosing states then perhaps New Hampshire and other close states like Virginia and Nevada should be done too?
One thing for sure is that Trump won big in the popular vote total for all the cities outside the Beltway that are not ruled by corrupt lawbreakers who make illegal “sanctuary” claims to cover up their lawlessness. Trump probably lost around a million votes inside the Beltway thanks to his “drain the swamp” rhetoric. However he also got an extra 3 million or more votes (that he will lose in 2020 if he fails to drain the swamp) due to this rhetoric as the vast majority of voters, electoral votes, and land mass in our country is outside of the sanctuary crime zones and Beltway.
If the recount process goes forward then Trump, RNC, and all of us better be ready to observe and ensure it’s all handled fairly.
