With recount effort now underway in the three razor-tight swing states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, it turns out Hillary Clinton has already moved closer to winning those states than had originally been announced. In the past two weeks Michigan and Wisconsin have both voluntarily revised the size of Donald Trumps win downward by thousands of votes each. And now Pennsylvania has shrunk the size of Trumps win by tens of thousands of votes.
Its important to understand that these revisions have been made by the states before the recounts even got underway. These shifts in the vote totals have been based on precincts revising their own numbers, either because they caught errors of their own accord, or in some instances because internet gawkers spotted numerical impossibilities that forced those precincts to check themselves. But the sudden shift in Pennsylvania voting totals is dramatic, in that it wipes out around one-third of Trumps lead in the state ahead of the recount.
Heres what happened: according to this USA Today article and several other sources, the vote totals in Pennsylvania had Donald Trump winning by 70,638 votes a number which was often quoted as a reason for why Hillary Clinton would supposedly have no chance of flipping the state in a recount. But earlier today, the respected Decision Desk HQ posted the newly revised totals from Pennsylvania, which have Donald Trump ahead by just 46,938 votes. That means Trumps lead in the state has now shrunk by 23,700 votes, based on what it says are newly revised numbers out of Philadelphia.
Again, this massive shift in Hillary Clintons direction in Pennsylvania is coming before the recount, based on precincts making their own revisions. Its notable that all three states in question have now revised their totals sharply in Clintons favor before any statewide recounting. Clinton has caught up by more than two thousand votes in Michigan, and caught up by more than five thousand votes in Wisconsin and now by more than 23,000 votes in Pennsylvania. These were all due to initial errors in Trumps favor, which have now been corrected. How many more such errors will the recounts uncover?
I’m sure the LSM will get right on an investigation to see how this system works....
The Dems mocked Trump for saying the elections are rigged, and then try to steal the election right in front of our faces.
There is no way that there are “mistakes” of this magnitude.
U Haul truck in philly full of hildabeast ballots just showed up in philly
This news is at least a week old, if not more...
They are delusional... Overturning the election at this point would not result in protest.... The result would be all out civil war.
What is this Hog Wash.
You can tell this was “article” was written by some delusional Hillarybot.
Also, this is some BlogSpot blog you posted in news?
The LSM only reports fake news.
where’s previous report of this?
Philly just finished counting their mail-in ballots, that's all. Everything that was postmarked by election day gets counted. Some of them took a while to come in.
Nothing to worry about.
This is it. Everything in PA has been counted. There's nothing left to count. No hidden stash of Democratic votes.
Thank you.
Count all you want. Trump is inaugurated 1/20/17 at noon, or the shootin’ starts at 12:01.
“Overturning the election at this point would not result in protest.... The result would be all out civil war.”
No doubt about it.
So basically our elections are a joke? No better than a banana republic?
Yep - the trouble is they were so overconfident that they didn’t stash nearly enough fraudulent votes to turn the Trump tide....
Go to the “Rim Country Gazette” blogsite. Their masthead was written by barking moonbats. Says it all.
IOW to some degree this always happens, and to some degree is legitimate. It takes time to validate the provisional ballots.
I'm not saying it's all legitimate however. We know there's always mega-fraud committed by the Dems in Philadelphia.
