    Don't remember the Florida recount fiasco?

    I have a new mental image of Hillary and Jill Stein.

    kind of amusing that Stien has raised twice the money in a couple of days than she recieved the entire 2016 cycle. Move On , Think Progress, foreign governments. Who knows where the money is coming from. No evidence of election tampering anywhere. Pennsylvania machines would have to be hacked one at a time in person. Michigan uses a scanned paper ballot. It looks like a scam to me too

    Yes, and that's exactly what they're doing. It's frustrating, it's sad but perhaps it will also allow for a new consolidation of power when people get to see the true pit in our political system. The garbage being so awful that it's not just one or two heads, but an entire organizational problem.

    so what do you expect to come of this? There is not a shred of evidence of any wrong doing. Pretty much everyone thinks that the money for this is coming from the clintons, Stein is making the green party look like a bunch of dunces and democratic lapdogs. I don't see any upside in this for anyone, except Stein of course who will walk away with twice as much money in her pockets as she raised the entire 2016 election cycle

    September Trump says election is rigged.
    October Trump says election is really rigged.
    November Stein says she believes him.

    If everyone who voted for Jill Stein gave only $5, she would have the $7 million.
    That's not counting the 150 million, or so, eligible voters in the US who didn't not vote for Trump, for one reason or another.

    In that case the right should not be so worried.

    Why on earth would Hillary blatantly display herself to be what she claimed Trump was? None of the states triggered an automatic recount. This is just another effort to create a crisis that can be exploited by the angry and nasty progressive left.

    In any event it's a non-issue because it was revealed this morning that Stein has got to go through the court system in order to get a recall ordered, and what judge is ballsy enough to shut down the nation over such a thing; especially when Hillary Clinton has already conceded and Obama has welcomed Trump as the President-elect? This ain't like 2000 when the whole shebang rested on the results of Florida.

    Trump could ignore it instead of going on a twitter rampage.

    At least none of Trump's tweets have resulted in the political NECESSITY of the creation of the world's first ever Beer Summit. Trump haters have forgotten all about the iffy things that Barack Obama did when he was just starting out as president. But then again they were just fine with ALL of Barack Obama's -- er -- 'errors'.

    I believe that is in Pennsylvania not Wisconsin.

    It is funny that Jill Stein is teaming up with in her words the "queen of corruption".

    Why, are you afraid of the truth?

    Oh aye, and then there is also those mysterious flooding of millions of dollars into Stein's coffers . . . just when she needs it. What I like most about this presidential election cycle is that even when it is over . . . it . . . ain't . . . over. The fun simply continues and the Left collectively keeps on digging larger and deeper holes for themselves. Nice!

    Three Liberal judges in each separate State. I never thought that the PA Supreme Court vote would be important. In that election, I voted for the Independent Judge and I think I was split on the Dems/Repubs after that. The Court won all three Democratic challengers to my disappointment.


    Never thought it'd be huge in 2016.

    What's going to happen is that they will run out of time to count all the votes and then they will start in the courts trying to overturn the Constitutional requirement of the electoral vote date. It would end up in the Supreme Court again and Hillary is betting on the 4/4 split to be in her favor. If they are successful in overturning the constitution then you know the fix is in and Hillary will have created a constitutional crisis.

    Hillary is stomping her feet because she lost....again. She definitely does not have the tempermant to be president. Looks like America dodged a bullet there!

    The real question here are what are Jill Stein's motives and what are Hillary's motives or basically the Democratic Party. Look for Jill Stein to be interested in running for president in a couple of years but she'll run on the Democratic ticket. She is the only one on the far progressive left that will be young enough. The Democrats who invented identity politics are stuck with it. They will be more interested in putting a woman in as president and actually caring about the nation. The Democrats have moved so far left but they believe they didn't move far enough left.

    Stein is legally entitled to request a recount and - given that another candidate had repeated claimed that the election was "rigged" and the electoral college system a "disaster" - why not?

    If the prissy boys are confident that their messiah won, what difference does verifying the vote make?

    Hysterical tweets about a legitimate process to confirm electoral results only betray insecurity and an unstable temperament.

    A self-confident victor would dismissively quip, "Count them as many times as you want", not indulge in yet another petty hissysnit.
