the democrats couldn't even manufacture 500 ballots to change the election in Florida 2000

You mean manufacture 500 MORE ballots - with everyone watching.

“In more ways than one, but primarily no presidential election would have any meaning anymore. The link to the Constitution and the rule of law would be completely obliterated.”

I think it is already (almost) obliterated. I suspect that the system is rife with vote fraud. Maybe the Trump operation to watch the vote on election night prevented fraud on election night, but I have no doubt they can steal it now. There has been plenty of time to reprogram machines, “discover” ballot boxes etc.

Trump's not worried about it, his team is treating the entire thing with a yawn. They are not even sending a legal team to contest it. And even the liberal media (Washington Post and New York Times) is saying it stands 0% chance of overturning the election result. Look at this way, the democrats couldn't even manufacture 500 ballots to change the election in Florida 2000. Does anybody honestly think they are going to successfully manufacture 60,000+ votes across three separate states, and manage to get those three states elections decertified and reversed BEFORE the Electoral College votes on December 19th.

I agree that this isn't a serious threat.

However, the Dems did manufacture more than 1,000 votes during the Florida 2000 recount - the original margin was 1,784, and the certified total was 537. The early (and false) media call for Gore also suppressed thousands of Republican votes in the Panhandle.

However, the Dems did manufacture more than 1,000 votes during the Florida 2000 recount - the original margin was 1,784, and the certified total was 537.

Even the 1,000 vote gain was mistakenly applied.

Recall the re-count in Dade County. They started with Precinct 1 and went up from there. By the time they were halfway thru the county, Gore had gained about 1,000 votes. But, then, they stopped! They called off the rest of the re-count and went home.

After this puzzling event, we soon learned the reason for their unwillingness to continue.

First, recall that punch cards tend to create additional votes every

time they are counted -- because the "hanging chads" tend to get shaken loose and fall out every time they are passed thru the machine. The precincts they had counted were heavily Democrat precincts and would've been expected to produce more extra Gore votes than extra Bush votes.

But, if they had continued, they would be counting Republican precincts -- and Bush would start gaining ground. In short, they had all the extra Gore votes they were going to get...and it wasn't enough.

So, they quit.

When the re-count came before the Florida Supreme Court, one of the justices -- a highly partisan lady -- insisted that the partial re-count of Dade County be incorporated into the official vote tally. Doing so was highly irregular, but she got away with it when the SCOTUS subsequently called foul on the whole operation.

Since Bush was finally declared the winner, nobody wanted to bother with correcting the record.

That would throw the election into the House. Theoretically they could elect someone else, but they won't.

Perhaps some House GOP leaders may try to force Trump into dropping tough anti-illegal policies in exchange, but then they can kiss their a$$e$ goodbye in 2018.

All the ambiguous talk from the Trump transition is probably a head fake. I believe they just want to keep Obambi from pardoning Broom Hilda before he leaves.

Trump may say now he doesn't "wish" to ask for a special prosecutor, but he may "have to" do that in a couple of months, particularly if the Sorocrats and the Enemedia continue to be a-holes.

I don’t trust Paul Ryan’s House!
We need to get on our Reps to ensure a Trump victory.

So why didn’t we know until much later that GWB won?

SCOTUS handed down their Bush v Gore decision on December 12, 2000 -- effectively halting the re-count. The electors cast their ballots on December 18 -- as scheduled -- and Bush officially became the president-elect.

Bush v Gore

Does that resolve your question?

Excerpt from the Wisconsin Election Commission about this request...”In a recount, all ballots (including those that were originally hand counted) are examined to determine voter intent before being retabulated.

That is what I find worrisome. Letting commisioners decide "voter intent" takes away the voter's right to vote for candidates from both parties and serves as an excuse to let the comissioners decide the intent. Yes, Florida 2000 all over again. Why would Hillary/Soros proceed if they didn't know they have the votes?

What I find more concerning is the deafening silence from Team Trump and the Wisconsin GOP, Governor Walker, Preibus and other WI GOP big shots about this theft of fraud the Wisconsin Presidential Election!

I read that the make up of the regular WI State Board of Elections membership is made up 3 Republicans and 3 Rats. Is the seventh and chair of the Board of Elections appointed by the Governor, Scott Walker or is it an elected position?

If the chair is appointed by Walker, then Walker should be putting back channel pressure to put a stop to the recount/theft after GOP elections lawyers on behalf of the Trump campaign filed their grounded objection to the recount taking place. According to WI law, other candidates on the ballot has the right to formally object to the recount and put forth grounds for their objection. The election board must hear and take the objections under advisement and if a majority of the board agrees, the recount can be stopped from happening!!

Theyre silent because it’s statistically impossible to overcome a 20,000 deficit. If it were 1 or 2,000 maybe. Not 10,000 (MI) or especially 20,000. And the 70,000 in PA is a total joke. Not to mention the 3 states Trump lost (NH, MN, NV) were less than what Trump won PA by.

Never underestimate the rats ability to steal an election or at least brazenly try, no matter how big the lead may be, especially with the MSM in their hip pocket. Stein is requesting and may get a hand count of the state and also they must go thru all the rejected ballot and accept those where the “intent of the voter can be discerned”, just like the rats in Florida did in 2000.

There are over 80,000 ballots that were rejected plus unknown numbers of disallowed provisional ballots that will be re-examined and possibly allowed to be counted if Stein gets her way. With Wisconsin’s history of liberal rules when it comes to voting and with this many outstanding rejected ballots, Trumps 27,000 vote lead doesn’t look so great.

I am positive that Pennsylvannia will not be recounted and should be the Firewall to keep Trump winning the electoral college should the rats flip MI and/or WI, or the recounts aren’t done before the electoral college deadlines, which is possible with statewide handcounts.

Pennsylvania’s recount request rules are far more complex and make it nearly impossible for get a recount request approved if you don’t fall within the auto recount range.

From what I have read, the deadline for filing for recanvassing/recounting at the county level (you can only request the country elections offices in PA) has already passed.

She has to wait till Monday, after the election is certified, then she must go before a state appellate judge and present evidence either of massive fraud or major discrepancies in country vote counts, between the original and recounts - must happen in several counties. Only if this kind of evidence is presented will a judge then order a state wide recount and allow the election contest to proceed.

From Steins own admission, she doesn’t have any direct evidence of fraud or hacking, only theories. Most predict whichever judge gets her request will reject it due to lack of evidence.

There was also the very real case of deployed soldiers from various states, (thousands from *Florida*), whose names and ballots were counted, but which had never been delivered or seen at the actual bases by the soldiers stationed at various locations around the world. It was not universally the case, but many of our bases did not receive the ballots repeatedly requested.

I was personally involved in the investigation with then US Rep. Joe S’s office (Pensacola, FL) in conjunction with another US Rep Petri from Wisconsin.

I had personally spoken with Air Force personnel in England, whose ballots were discovered counted for Gore in Florida, who were upset they had not been allowed to vote! This after repeated requests from their base commander for delivery of the ballots to afford their personnel the opportunity to vote, which never came!

Discovery was made and recorded of thousands of votes from names of deployed personnel (all branches) being cast for Gore. In these cases, none were found for Bush.

Again, this problem originated well before the election after complaints from OCONUS commanders and personnel who repeatedly requested ballots and then never received the ballots in order to vote.

The ad hoc service members congressional investigation (during the Gore Campaign’s demand for recounts) did find thousands of ballots counted for Gore in Florida by concerned servicemen OCONUS which never received their ballots and who went on record as not actually having the chance to vote.

After the Bush win, the RNC halted and downplayed the investigation and did not publish the findings which were made.

And just think, this incident which happened with Clinton as Commander in Chief, which I was involved in investigating, happened long before the cargo plane went down destroying all the ballots for our ground soldiers in Afghanistan and a small naval vessel sank carrying more ballots for our service members in a later election on another presidents watch...

What a coincidence... (sarc)

If they manage to steal and swing just one state, it sets a terrible precedent.

I remember seeing a story that some of these election machines are from a company owned by George Soros.... don’t be surprised when all of sudden, Hillary “steals” enough votes to overtake Trump’s lead in Wisconsin and Michigan.
