It’s volunteer but costs millions and millions. What is this? Money laundering and politicians skimming off the top, kickbacks or what?

If it’s volunteer, why did Stein have to (allegedly) come up with 2.5 million (now it’s 4.5, soon to rise to 7.5) to pay for the RECOUNT ?

I want a recount in California and Hawaii. I can’t believe there were enough idiots to vote for Hillary there. Those states should have gone to Trump. So when does the recounting start in California and Hawaii?

Yes...they finished...Trump won with 10k votes narrowest win in history of Michigan but he officially has 306 electoral votes now
and Stein wont get 10k vote swing so its all smoke an mirrors on Dem and Green party part!

Representatives from both parties participated when Gore tried to steal the 2000 election.
Surely, the state of MI, to say nothing of Trump’s people and 60 million of us, will insist on the same or this sucker is a non-starter.

GOP is asking for volunteers to help with recount, but state charges so much per precinct I guess. Not sure what that bubble head Jill Stein is up to.
Maybe the Michigan GOP is fundraising,too.

All 3 have to be flipped for Hillary to win. If that happens, then the entire election is no good.
Naw....it's some kind of money scheme.

so, does Trump go this route ?
RECOUNT PETITION OBJECTIONS:
On or before 4:00 p.m. of the seventh day after the original recount petition is filed, an opposing candidate may submit objections to the recount request to the Board of County Canvassers. The objections must be set forth in writing. A hearing is conducted by the Board to consider the objections.
A ruling on the objections is issued by the Board within five days after the conduct of the hearing. If the objections are overturned by the Board, the recount can commence after the second business day following the issuance of the Boards decision. (MCL 168.868)"

Thanks.
Not sure how Stein is permitted to force recounts when she has no possible chance of winning.

Hillary can find lots of “volunteers “. I’ll be killed before I will submit to this. If Hillary “wins” shut the country down and violence is permitted.

You know, I hate to black pill this stuff, but Hillary doesn't need to get over 270 - she just needs to get Trump under 270.
If Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania can't certify because they can't finish counting, the Congress will wind up counting 260-232, and if ONE elector votes for Ryan or Romney or Bush, you will have a very volatile situation as the election moves to the House.

That's what I've been saying....it's a scam....like money laundering.
Where's wikileaks when you need them.

$2.5 millions not enough. The three states should charge $2.5 billions to Soros/Hillary and Jill Stern
To: drewh
Dec 19 i think ?That's when they assemble in Harrisburg, Lansing, and Madison and vote.
They have to be appointed before that.

Jill Stein just stepped in it, Twitter read: “Fidel Castro was a symbol of the struggle for justice in the shadow of empire. Presente!” She will lose support over this. She is a loon. Who will want to support her efforts. If the Dems support her they will look to support a person who thought Fidel was a Hero.
