Clintons Confirm Participation In Recount Plan, Despite No "Actionable Evidence Of Hacking"
ZeroHedge.com ^ | 26 November 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 11/26/2016 11:50:59 AM PST by Rockitz

This morning Hillary Clinton's campaign general counsel, Marc Elias, confirmed what we all knew already, namely that Jill Stein is likely acting at the direction of the Clintons in her recount efforts in WI, MI and PA. The discovery came after Elias posted a note to Hillary voters this morning on Medium confirming that they would participate in Stein's recount efforts even though the Clinton campaign itself had decided against a recount because they had "not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology." This approach seems to align perfectly with the strategy we laid out two days ago:

We joke, of course, as Jill Stein's effort to raise money for recounts in WI, PA and MI is obviously being done on behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign. It's a very clever approach (we would expect nothing less) as it allows Hillary to maintain the high road as the gracious loser while allowing someone else to play the bad guy...typical Clinton politics really.

That said, since Jill Stein decided to act "completely independently" to waste the money of a bunch of donors the Hillary general counsel figures they might as well participate despite the fact that "the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states—Michigan—well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount."

Because we had not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, we had not planned to exercise this option ourselves, but now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides.

Yes, I think so too. But it shows them testing the waters over a reaction from what they label as the ‘Alt-Right’ and it also riles up their base.

The comments to the link show their base will believe anything. They are doing what they always do, projecting their lies about ‘fake news’ onto their own fake news.

Disgusting.

They are going to get a whole bunch of their lemmings killed too along with themselves.

Seems to me this would provide a perfect opportunity to reveal the breadth and depth of vote fraud on the part of Dems. This procedure ought to be exempt from any agreements Republicans have made in regard to challenging the election process.

From the hornet’s nest you are so right, he will fight and is preemptive with his strategy. He’s already fought several attempts to steal particular states throughout the election.

If he needs o fight he will be there and he will hit them back at least twice as hard. They will not get by with stealing this election.

Of course she does not care about Hillary. But she does care for $5 million bucks.

George Soros was behind the coup d’etat in Ukraine. Do some googling. There’s a lot there on it.

One more chance to "find" some more votes and to disallow military votes and to reconfigure voting machines to show a "proper" vote count. All of the illegals who voted, well, their votes will stand, as will all the votes of dead people and all the multiple votes and the hundreds of votes from single addresses. Boxes of digital votes will be found in digital closets that are all Democrat. Voting precinct totals will be revised to reflect some on-paper figure for what the precinct total should have showed. This is a particularly egregious example of vote fraud. Post vote fraud?

I defer to Trump’s judgment in his understanding of what is going on and what to do about it. He has proved to be right every time I cringed when he said something I thought would hurt him. He changes tactics on a dime to counter a changed situation. I second guessed him a lot and said a number of times, “Why..??? “ and then watched him win and win some more. I don’t second guess him any more.

Do you really think the Trump team doesn't know what's going on in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania?

The thing is, Dems ALWAYS win recounts. They wouldn't have started this crap if they didn't know they have the votes. They had the votes in Florida in 2000 before the SCOTUS put and end to their shenanigans. Between determining "intent of the voter" and provisional ballots, they'll scrape up enough to steal the election. This time the SCOTUS can't do squat.

Is this what you call "evidence?"

If you can cite a single case where anyone in the U.S. was able to go through a recount process and make up a margin of 10,000 (Michigan) to 60,000 (Pennsylvania) votes, please do so.

Do you?

They didn't "find" any votes in that case. There were almost 1,500 ballots that had been legitimately cast but had been disqualified during the initial count, and they were added to the final vote count during the final canvassing process.

There was a lot of evidence of voter fraud in that case, but it nothing to do with the vote counting process. It involved questionable voter registrations and several hundred documented cases of felons voting.

Are Hillary’s supporters supporting her words?

Clinton would not be playing this card unless they thought they could win. They know how many votes they have to find

This not about winning it is about sowing chaos, because only in mayhem and chaos can degenerate devils continue to thrive.

If Trump's margin in Michigan is 10,000, she only needs to swing 5,001 votes to win. Just because it is unprecedented doesn't mean it is impossible or even unlikely.

“In his five-point regime-change strategy Soros,
1) infiltrates countries with his operatives, under the cover of humanitarian aid;
2) takes control of the air waves by creating “independent media” under his own control;
3) destabilizes the targeted country with financial manipulations and political agitation,
4) waits for an election, then disrupts it with charges of voter fraud, then;
5) takes the streets with armies of activist youth whom Soros has recruited, trained and funded, all demanding that the incumbent step down.”

Wouldn't it have been easier to do this in states like Florida or North Carolina?

If Clinton really thought she had a chance to win, she wouldn't have been showing up in public looking like a homeless bag lady.
