Good day all. Last week, Green party candidate Jill Stein announced she was raising money for a recount of the votes in the recent presidential election. The recount won’t do anything for Stein’s dream of being president.
No, what many people are thinking is that this fund raising is nothing more then a scam by Stein to pay off her debts. Most of the states have closed the window on any recounts, however, Wisconsin has announced that they will do a recount. What is interesting, (and another reason people think this is a scam), is that Hillary Clinton is now backing this. This after she conceeded weeks ago. Here are some of the details from Bloomberg:
Hillary Clinton’s campaign will participate in vote recounts of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan if they take place, drawing a rebuke from Donald Trump’s team that the Democrat is being a “sore loser” and part of a “ridiculous” effort.
These were states that Felonia von Pantsuit unexpectedly lost.
If Green Party candidate Jill Stein initiates recounts in those states as she intends, the Clinton campaign “will participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides,” Clinton campaign lawyer Marc Elias said Saturday in a post on the blogging website Medium.com. He added that he doesn’t expect the action to overturn Trump’s election.
This smacks of a repeat of what happened in 2000 in Florida. One big difference was that Al Gore called for a recount and began his quest to have the judicial branch declare him the winner almost immediately after the election. He didn’t wait three weeks before demanding a recount.
The reason’s given for the requests for a recount are claims that the votes may have been “Hacked” by foreign powers. (They usually blame Russia) The problem with this is that in order to hack the machines, where voting machines are used and not paper ballots, is that they have to be physically touched by someone. They are not generally networked and the few that are, aren’t connected to the Internet.
The Democrat’s campaign didn’t plan to initiate the recounts on its own because it hasn’t found “any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology,” Elias wrote.
A senior administration official, meanwhile, said in a statement that the government didn’t observe any increased level of malicious cyber activity aimed at disrupting the election on election day and believes the elections were free and fair from a cybersecurity perspective.
And again the reason they didn’t see anything is that there was nothing to see. The American voting system is just to decentralized to be corrupted from external sources. No, it takes Democrats internal agents to rig things so that an election is “fixed.”
Elias also isn’t expecting the recounts to erase what he said was a 107,000 combined vote margin separating the candidates in the three battleground states and overturning the election of Trump, who is due to be sworn in as president in January.
What would probably happen is the margin of victory would increase for Donald Trump. A recount would probably discover actual voting fraud, and as we’ve seen in the past, it’s usually the Democrats committing the fraud. Just prior to the election, we saw a number of states catching people trying to commit election fraud, and “Surprise Surprise!” they were mostly Democrats.
“We do so fully aware that the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states — Michigan — well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount,” Elias said. “But regardless of the potential to change the outcome in any of the states, we feel it is important, on principle, to ensure our campaign is legally represented in any court proceedings and represented on the ground in order to monitor the recount process itself.”
Marc Elias might want to look at what happened when a private entity paid for a full state recount in Florida back in 2000. The number of votes for George Bush increased and the number of votes for Al Gore decreased. That wasn’t the hoped for results by the organizations that paid for the recount.
The 2016 election cycle “was unique in the degree of foreign interference witnessed throughout the campaign,” Elias said, noting that the U.S. government had concluded Russian state actors were behind hacks of the Democrat National Committee and the personal e-mails of some Clinton campaign officials.
“We have quietly taken a number of steps in the last two weeks to rule in or out any possibility of outside interference in the vote tally in these critical battleground states,” he said, including having data scientists and lawyers comb over the results, and monitoring and staffing post-election canvasses.
Oh please! The Democrats are still angry that their attempts to rig the general election, along with proof of their rigging the primary elections ended up on Wikileaks. They like to claim it was the Russians who did this, and that might be true. However, considering the level of incompetence of the Democrats in securing their computer systems, anyone could have, and probably did, access their email accounts, including 15 year old Boris in his parents Volgagrad apartment.
What these claims have shown was just how far Felonia von Pantsuit, King Putt and the Democrats were willing to go. They were just short of demanding that we go to war with the Federated States of Russia over these claims. And the Democrats were concerned about Donald Trump having access to the Nuclear launch codes? I think the odds of a war have significantly decreased now that Felonia was defeated.
Prior to the election, Donald Trump remarked that he might not accept the results of the election. The Democrats went off on that remark, although most people thought he meant that he wanted everything verified if it was a close election. Now the shoe is on the other foot and the Democrats are acting like the barking moonbats they are.
