Seriuosly, why does everybody panic about such a nonsense. The voting machines weren't hacked and even if they were then by Soros and not by Russia.

We are talking about a difference of 25.000 votes.

Do you think so many votes have been counted wrongly??

Recounts are normally done if the vote margin is below 5k votes(rather below 2k) or below 0.3%. And they rarely result in a change of more than a few hundred votes(the margin), never in hell over 10k. The Florida recount was under 2k votes in 2000.

What do you all expect, that suddenly we find out that 25k votes were for Hillary but have been counted wrongly for Trump?

That is impossible, period.

You're not even trying any more with your propaganda.

Colorado is closer than Arizona.

Colorado 2.9% ~75K votes
Arizona 4.5% ~85K votes


Virginia is closer than Georgia

Virginia 4.9% ~185K
Georgia 5.7% ~231K


Florida is a difference of 120K votes, Nevada is 26K. You are not finding 120K votes in Florida.



New Hampshire is statistically most likely to flip and Minnesota is more likely to flip than Pennsylvania.

If Stein truly believes this isn't about any candidate should would have requested New Hampshire first and Minnesota before Pennsylvania.


No states will flip.

This is about the Alt-Left being sore losers and not accepting the election hypocritically after blasting Trump for it and about Stein getting 2020 money.

Actually ... I think we should recount Cali if they ever the get the 1st count done to see if there's any voter fraud.

Ultimately, the problem with recounts is that they are largely driven by those who desperately want to change the results of the election. That being the case, extreme bias is always to be expected, and that bias seriously taints the neutrality of vote counting. As such, recounts shouldn't be done at all.

Remember Florida in 2000 where the Democrats insisted on recounts only in counties that they won?? That's how these things tend to play out. If either party were sincere, then they'd want a full recount of every county and equal numbers of Democrats and Republicans overseeing the process. Neither of these things tend to happen.

I actually think Stein is doing this for the right reasons, I think she really wants to recount a sampling of states to determine if technical failure, negligence, or nefarious intent have caused a significant number of inaccuracies in the count in order to either correct them going forward if they exist or to restore faith in the balloting system if they don't. I don't agree with many of her political positions, but I do think she's a person of integrity.

I don't think she expects the recount of these states to effect the overall outcome of the election, but I'm confident that she chose these particular states because she knew Clinton supporters would donate heavily in the hope that this would happen.

Brilliant.

Major problems for her in her other two states. One state requires she has to have a judge's ruling to proceed and the other
state would permit Trump to challenge the recount which could string it out indefinitely....

recounts were designed for close calls not for losers with a paltry 1% of the vote. Her motives are definitely not clean.
I smell a George Soros manipulation.........

But you're missing the point. The Democrats calling for a recount only want a recount in places where they lost by a narrow margin. They're not even asking for New Hampshire, the most closely contested state.

If this were about doing the right thing, they'd call for recounts in states that they won as well as those that they lost. It's Florida in 2000 all over again. "Only recount stuff that could help us steal the victory! Ignore all the rest!"

And therein lies the problem with all recounts. Those calling for them are a lot less interested in truth and justice, and a lot more interested in stealing victory by any means possible.

Hey, good to see you at the Party Paw! This is my compadre from another battlefield.

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?

Question Are The Clintons Really Funding Jill Stein's Recount?

Interesting that donations are coming in at $160,000 every single hour.
