Dems Are Stalling, Recount Will Not Be Completed, WISCONSIN WILL FORFEIT TRUMP VOTES
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 12/01/16 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 12/02/2016 1:48:30 PM PST by Enlightened1

Wisconsin Representative Sean Duffy (R-WI) went on with Tucker Carlson tonight to discuss the recount in Wisconsin.
 
Duffy said Democrats and far left Green Party supporters are stalling the recount in Dane County Wisconsin, where Madison is located. The county is holding a hand recount. The recount will not be completed by the deadline on December 20th. Therefore, according to Rep. Duffy, the state will quite possibly be forced to forfeit their electoral votes.
 
This was the plan all along. Democrats knew they couldn’t make up 20,000 votes. But they also knew if they stalled on the recount the state could not certify the vote.
 
Wisconsin, won fairly by Donald Trump, will forfeit.
 
Federal law says that presidential recounts must be completed within 35 days after an election. Stein waited until 90 minutes before the Wisconsin deadline for filing a recount petition expired.
 
All the votes have to be certified by December 13 according to a report on Friday. The electors meet on December 19.
 
Wisconsin will almost certainly miss that deadline, since the last recount took more than a month. And that recount was for a state Supreme Court contest where only 1.5 million votes were cast.
 
If Wisconsin misses the December 19 deadline, the electoral votes may not be counted.
 
This was Hillary and Jill Stein’s plan all along.

Exactly. These folks hate gateway pundit even though he most often includes video of a respected source from which he etts his write up.

Gateway was a go to guy during the campaign who was pro Trump long before many of these latecomers.

So far as pop upsn folks should get a better browser. Try brave.com

Not finishing the recount makes WI uncertifiable thus nullifying the 10 EC votes, which is the whole point of the JS/HRC recount effort in WI, MI and PA. Whether DJT is still POTUS and the end is not the point.

The point is: to discredit his election, his administration and any laws flowing from that; further to discredit and in some way to bring about the nullification of the entire Electoral College in future elections - going for the ‘pure’ democratic popular vote which most LIVs understand.

HRC gaining POTUS is just incidental - this is about the long run.

Not finishing the recount makes WI pathetic. They showed themselves to be a soft target, and thus they are targeted.

The point is: when it took them over a month to recount 1.5 million votes everybody responsible should have been fired and replaced by some one competent. But they didn’t.

You are correct.

President-elect Trump isn't worried about Stein's money grab. I'm not either.

They were Democrats - don’t you understand? That’s their modus operendi - Dems do not fire other Dems for screwing up elections, they are rewarded. Stop blaming the rest of us for things you do not like of which we were powerless to change.

I understand very well. Wisconsin let the wrong people be in charge for too long and has yet to fix the problem. And now all these other terrible things can happen because of that. It’s your mess CLEAN IT UP! If you dedicated half as much effort into fixing it as you put into excusing it you wouldn’t have a problem.

Thanks for the ping, but I'm choosing to not worry about this for the time being and let Trump's grownups shut this nonsense down in due course.

That man did NOT go $100,000,000 out of pocket to be cheated out of it by grifters the likes of Stein and Clinton.

FR members would be well advised to put a little more faith in our new President and spend a lot less time helping to clutch the pearls of internet click bait artists.

Nope. Just telling the truth. You’ve gotta own what you’re state does. I come from AZ, a state internationally famous for having insane governors that do insane things. I have voted against every one of them, but they’re still my governors, they still represent my state, and they still embarrass the hell out of me. Own it, it’s your state, it’s screwed up, excuse mongering ain’t gonna fix it.

You are newcomers to this circus - this is the state where both the Republican and the socialist movement began. You are just blind to what is happening here. And if you think you could do better - show up and do something besides carping form the sidelines like you know it all.

Most of his “BREAKING” and “BOOM” articles are just a collection of various twitter post links from people I’ve never heard of.

The COUNT is the significant point. It has been done and the electors appointed as a result. A REcount is secondary and will not stand in the way of Ws electors voting.

The representative just mentions what “quite possibly” could happen. It is virtually impossible but “quite possibly”.

"Gateway Pundit often makes many claims that are never proved."

As a corollary, Jim often makes provocative claims to light a fire.

In this case he unfortunately omits some salient facts - WI could send a slate anyway; and more importantly, these shenanigans will not be easily forgotten, by conservative cheeseheads or President Trump.

Finally, when the recount is done, it will prove Pres. Trump won these states beyond a shadow of a doubt, thus immolating Canklestein's entire recount raison d'etre!

Hoft is losing credibility fast with this click bait

Doubtful. There will always be fools who will go to his website.

I’m not blind to any of it. I’m just pointing out that it’s YOUR FREAKING STATE. Stop shifting blame. I know I could do better, I AM DOING BETTER. I can admit that when my state is jacked up it’s partly my fault, because it’s my state.

Nobody is trolling. But I can see how someone addicted to deflection might see being instructed to OWN IT as trolling. Sad for you. Sad for Wisconsin too. Deciding problems can’t be fixed is one of the great self fulfilling prophecies. Until you own it it will always be a mess. Every time you deflect, every time you insist somebody is a troll for pointing out reality, you ensure the problem is permanent. The only one trolling here is you, the funny part is you troll yourself.
