DETROIT (AP) The Latest on the presidential recount efforts in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin (all times local):
7:50 p.m.
A federal judge who ordered Michigan to start recounting presidential votes has dropped his decision, effectively ending a second look at ballots statewide.
Judge Mark Goldsmith acted Wednesday night, a day after the state appeals court said the Green Party candidate isn't eligible to seek a recount of millions of vote cast Nov. 8.

Me too, but they’ll do it anyway because they can’t accept the alternative. I pity the electors who probably need bodyguards at this point...
bite your tongue
Has Dane County WI come in with its tally yet? Milwaukee? Those are the danger areas. But at this point I don’t know that they have the opportunity to find boxes of ballots in the back of someone’s car, or a storage room in the local precinct.
Assuming the machines are cleared as a result of this recount fiasco, what will be done to eliminate double voting, dead voting, illegal voting? That’s my concern.
ALSO, a biggie with me is dual citizenship. Let the voter declare him/herself a citizen of only one country for voting purposes. If they want some form of “heritage” citizenship with their or their parents or grandparents home country, fine, but they should not be able to vote there and here.
Folks wanting US citizenship used to have to renounce their former citizenship. Now US citizenship doesn’t mean that much to the newer waves of immigrants who are coming in legally, who won’t renounce the old homeland’s citizenship.
I can’t keep track .... what’s the story in PA? Are they recounting?
These people harassing the electors are playing with fire. The new government coming in will ruthlessly hunt these thugs down and wipe them out.

I was born French. I am since a US citizen. Under FRench law you may not renounce your citizenship under any circumstance. Same with Mexicans.

Even if for some reason WI and PA are witheld, Trump doesnt need 270, just a majority of electors assembled, so he’d win with as low as 233.
Now that there is serious allegations of Democrat Voter Fraud, they suddenly want to end this.
Gee, I cannot imagine WHY...
Time for another Hitler Downfall video...
“At 276 evs as of now, recounts are totally pointless and Trump will get the 306 he won. The nervous nellies and concern trolls can relax.”
Not the point of the recount in my opinion. 276 - 262 and Hillary taking the popular vote is too close and will be the mantra of the left for 4 years. This is Bush v Gore all over again with the left delegitimizing a Trump presidency.
306 is a landslide. 276 is a squeaker.
ND, SD, Alaska....all those states in the West have only like 2-3 electoral votes. Trump had to fight tooth and nail in so-called battleground states just to win.
I say strengthen the Electoral College. Counties should pick the President. Whoever wins the most counties in a state should win that state. That guarantees a 50-state landslide for Republicans.
In Dane County, only about 25 out of 237 wards are reporting nothing yet, so it’s pretty close to complete. THe Hillary margin is somewhat staggering but when you factor in the university, state gov’t and all the liberal elements, it’s probably right. I looked at Green, Iowa, and Rock which border Dane and where I know a lot of Madison people live in bedroom communities and you can just see the change from blue to red as you get out 40-50 miles, beyond commuting distance. Those counties are farming and dairy areas, small manufacturers, etc, so very much Trump COuntry.
I have high confidence in the WI process from listening to retired judge Jim Troupis who developed it and from previous elections They run honest elections, but for the same day registration and Voter ID which are being addressed the best they can be.
If Democrats in WI knew how to cheat Scott Walker would never have won three elections, ‘believe me’.
Even if for some reason WI and PA are witheld, Trump doesnt need 270, just a majority of electors assembled, so hed win with as low as 233.

Trump has 276 right now and will get the 306 he earned and won. Trump wins in Indiana with Carrier creating a 1000 jobs, He wins with Japan and Sofbank with 50,000 more jobs. He wins the election. He is now winning in the courts.
What a man and a role model.

Who cares what their mantra is? If not this than something else. They are irrelevant.
Yep! 306 smackeroos!!! Time to celebrate.
