Stein won't appeal machine recount; GOP files complaint
Milwaukee Wisconsin Journal Sentinel ^ | 11-30-16 | Jason Stein

Madison — Green Party candidate Jill Stein will not appeal a judge's rejection of her lawsuit to force a hand recount of nearly 3 million presidential ballots in Wisconsin, clearing the way for machines to be used in the statewide effort beginning Thursday.

Also Wednesday, Stein filed another recount petition in Michigan and the Republican Party of Wisconsin filed a federal elections complaint against both Stein and Democrat Hillary Clinton. The complaint alleges that Stein — who received only a small share of the vote — is improperly fundraising to pay for a recount that primarily benefits Clinton, the second-place finisher behind GOP President-elect Donald Trump.

The fund raising amounts to improper coordination between the two campaigns, the complaint to the Federal Elections Commission alleges.

Integrity of elections? Bah! Humbug! If she and her cohorts really cared about the integrity of elections, they wouldn’t be fighting so hard to prevent voters from showing their ID before voting.

I don’t think Stein’s actions have got anything to do with recounting votes: it’s all about the building the narrative that DJT didn’t win the election fairly “not my president”. It’s justification (in their own minds) for the disruption and violence and plain terrorism that is to come. (Not that the left need any justification, but it helps to stir-up their useful idiots.)

Appropriate caption for ANGRY WHITE WOMEN pic from today’s PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM prayer thread:

PSALM 36

1 I have a message from God in my heart concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
2 In their own eyes they flatter themselves too much to detect or hate their sin.
3 The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful; they fail to act wisely or do good.
4 Even on their beds they plot evil; they commit themselves to a sinful course; and do not reject what is wrong.
