> “The data from the Exit Polls conducted by Edison Research for the National Election Pool show Mr. Che to be correct an extremely small portion of the voting public (only 2%) told our exit pollsters they had a favorable view of both. While most voters did have a favorable view of one of the two major candidates an astonishing 18% of the electorate told us they had an unfavorable opinion of both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. And this is the group that won the election for Trump”

Let’s repeat the pertinent information in the above:
“an ***astonishing 18%*** of the electorate told us they had an unfavorable opinion of both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.”
Now contrast this exit poll information data with what Stein said in what follows here:
> In Michigan, Trump won by 11,000 votes. But there were 85,000 blank votes in which people voted for other races but they left the presidential race blank. That is far higher than any election in history.
The 85,000 ‘blank votes’ for President were out of about 4.8 million votes cast in MI, so that the 85,000 represent less than 2 percent of all votes.
Stein is lying.
She’s asking for hand recounts to ‘divine the intent’ of voters that refrained from voting for any preid3ntial candidate.
I just read an article about those blank ballots. I am sure they were already reviewd when the precincts did there tallies and there were no marks on them. Funny she doesn’t mention those ballots.
There were a lot of people who didn’t want either Trump or Hillary but had nobody to vote for. A substantial number of my extended family falls into that category. It is VERY plausible that there would be more “undervotes” this time. That’s what happens when the media napalms the candidate opposing the candidate known to be a treasonous criminal. There’s nobody left for the thinking (but ignorant because they only have time for MSM “news” snippets) public to vote for.
Leaving a ballot blank IS a voter expressing their desire. To throw out and/or falsely ascribe some other intent is to silence the will of those voters.
My policy is to abstain from voting on any candidate/issue I have not researched myself. My ballot is ALWAYS an “under-vote” because I take the responsibility to vote wisely very seriously and don’t have time to research everything. For somebody to throw out my vote because I have that policy would be unconscionable.
