Initial report - later changed [Breaking, 3:20 p.m.: Lawrence Otter, a lawyer for Green Party candidate Jill Stein, said the campaign was dropping its Pennsylvania recount lawsuit Monday afternoon. Check back for updates.]

Revised:

HARRISBURG — Former Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein on Monday continued her campaign to contest the election results in three battleground states, filing suit in Pennsylvania seeking a statewide recount.

Legal papers filed in Commonwealth Court by a lawyer for Stein’s campaign conten the Nov. 8 election was “illegal” and the results inaccurate based on research suggesting there might have been irregularities with electronic voting machines, among other evidence.

“Petitioners have grave concerns about the integrity of electronic voting machines used in their districts,” the suit stated.

Though Monday’s petition was filed by 100 Pennsylvania voters, as required by the state’s election law, it is part of Stein’s effort to challenge results in three states that were critical to deciding the presidential election.

They changed it, and others saw that as well.

Stein got what she wanted........”CASH” and lots of it from the whiners that supported not only herself but Hitlary. She should be charged with embezzling money.

Who knows how many ordinary run-of-the-mill moonbats sent in money. It may have been nearly all from Soros.

But what is Soros' endgame? Does he want to ensure that Stein runs again in 2020 (before he knows who the Democrat candidate will be)?

I think there are three kinds of vote fraud - the most common of which is not even called fraud - namely, letting illegals vote.

This is the most common because there is no risk - in fact it is legally protected where voter ID is not required or where you have a POTUS who publicly encourages it. There must be tens of millions of illegal votes - 90% plus for the democrat.

Next, you have poll workers cheating by just going down lists of registered voters who didn’t vote and just pushing the button over and over. This is very localized and happens only in certain inner city precincts so extremely democrat that republicans do not dare show up. These crooked precincts are rare but they can generate a lot of fake votes. Black precincts in Philadelphia did this for Obama - it’s not even organized from the top - more like spontaneous opportunistic looting. I don’t think there was much of this for Hillary.

The third kind is what everyone talks about - some sophisticated hacker rigs a machine or replaces the chip or whatever. Very doable if one has the right skills, but also extremely risky - if you are caught doing this you could go away for a long time. So I doubt this happens much.

I think the bulk of vote cheating is accomplished by not requiring voters to prove they are citizens or that they have not already voted. Bussing people and paying people to vote for a certain candidate - these things are not even illegal - if you get caught nothing happens.

The more liberals become congressmen and judges the more illegals and criminals and cheaters will vote, because they want it to happen - they loosen the laws and make enforcement impossible - illegals and criminals and cheaters vote exclusively democrat. Honest citizens vote honestly republican and democrat.

Trump should force a recount in sanctuary cities for the purpose of identifying illegals casting a vote. These votes should be subtracted from the 2016 totals.

Casting a vote as an illegal should be grounds for immediate deportation.

My heart’s desire is that Soros will be in a dank cell in the old Soviet Lubyanka prison in Moscow by then.

She’s DROPPING the idea?

What really happened?

Did she MISS the deadline in Pennsylvania?

So the spin is “She dropped it”.

Is there a single Democrat in the entire USA who can tell the truth???

I am looking at this recount crap this way:

If there was any thing that was wrong, do you think Trump would be picking his cabinet??? Was George W. Bush allowed to pick his cabinet until after the ‘chads’ twice??? No, he had to wait...is Trump waiting, have any of us read where he has been told to ‘wait’ NO...so until I hear that from Trump or an ‘official that has that right and responsibility’ I will not be concerned about any of this...

>>No. It actually changed right while I was looking at it.<<

So, it is YOUR fault, eh?

I have seen this in moves and Outer Limits episodes. What did you do in the past that messed up a perfectly good future?

I realize now the reason for the back-and-forth today. They know they needed to drop the suit, but they realized after saying so that it would look a lot better if they could maneuver a judge into giving them the bad news, so they don’t have to take the blame themselves. They can blame the terrible capitalist system. So much better for Jill, who plans to hold on to the cash.

There will be no voter initiated recount like she originally claimed. She is now filing a lawsuit to contest the election - to have it thrown out.

Har har. I have magical computer mind powers. ;) It really was weird. I can’t imagine why they posted that headline unless they just wanted to see how long it would take for us to start celebrating.
