She would need all three states to flip.

Clinton lost to Trump in PA by about 70,000 votes. Massive voter fraud in the state would have to be proven for PA to be overturned or invalidated. The Clinton’s team would have to rely on proving massive voter fraud enough for a Pennsylvania court to rule the entire state invalid.

So, to your subject, is this of interest here?

WHOA! COULD GEORGE SOROS Be Secretly Funding Jill Stein's Recount Effort To Steal The Presidency From Trump? » 100percentfedUp.com

So in lieu of this, what did Dinesh D'Sousa serve time for again?
Was it stealing cookies from the cookie jar ?

BTW-Even if they were able to stuff the ballot box on a recount in WI, they only have
until December 13th to get the other two states and the Donald can block one with
a challenge to put it past the federal deadline....And if they think they can get MI done
before 12/13/16 they would be delusional. MI just finished the official count last Friday, I believe.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the recount will have to be completed by a Dec. 13 federal deadline, putting the state at risk of having its 10 electoral votes go uncounted if it's missed.

Perhaps that is the goal - to take away as many electoral votes as possible?

However, in light of the rest of the report:

Green Party officials say the recount is about checking the integrity of the voting process, not about whether Trump won or lost.

"We are not doing this to the benefit of one candidate over the other," said national party official and Milwaukee activist George Martin. "We're doing this for the benefit of the American public. So that we can trust our votes are counted."

Yes, the activist George Martin says, it's for the people. Like just about everything, when needing a reason, is "for the children."

I think the right is making a big mistake by jumping all over this with negativity.

As an Independent liberal I find this whole thing a continuance of the circus that was this past election. Why not drag it on some more *insert sarcastic look here*?

Don't act like the children many of the liberal left are acting like at this moment. You should be confident in Trump's victory with no worries of some official jumping in and overturning the call. Big deal. This is an obligatory end of the game red challenge flag being thrown by the Democrats [EDIT: should have said thrown by all those in opposition to Trump].

And on the 0.0000000000000000000000001% chance something egregious is found, then you have the right to at least hear about it since you voted for him and put your trust in his hands.

And it reads that deadlines are fast approaching in the other two states (MI and PA).

You think she will return all that money if those recounts are not done?

To contest an election, you need grounds to do so. That means finding real, hard factual evidence, and local and national lawyers who can advise the campaign on the best way to frame and present that evidence. And on a tight timeframe: as short as four days in some states. “You cannot wing this. You can’t just be a sore loser and say something went wrong,” Gerken says.
Continuing, when they made this all about Trump losing...

Which leaves only one avenue for Trump...tampering with the electoral college. “He can ask the electors to vote for him instead, or try to get state legislatures to substitute a second slate of electors,” says Issacharoff. “But this is not a banana republic. The idea that he could pull off anything like that is basically inconceivable.”
I hope that these people are eating their lumps, and realizing that this article needs to be all about Hillary camp and supporters.

And again, words for the Hillaryshills since they were good enough when they all thought Trump was going to lose:

Still, any candidate refusing to accept the results of a properly conducted election is a blow to democracy. And that’s why we hope that—regardless of who wins today—the loser will be gracious in his or her concession. “One hopes that, like kidney stones, this too shall pass,” Issacharoff says. But if Trump does lose, it might be comforting to remember: Short of a coup d’état, there’s not much he can do but grumble.

The other story I found was about ICE arresting 7 undocumented immigrants while they were trying to cast provisional ballots, unfortunately there is no reliable source for that one either.

One thing about undocumented people that makes them unlikely to vote is that they are afraid of being caught, they avoid doing anything that will draw attention to the fact that they don't have legal status to be in the US.
Well, Obama cleared up that misconception for an illegal alien "dreamer" who interviewed him on the topic:
