    It is interesting.
    It would also be interesting to hear TBs analysis.

    Yes the clintonites do have a lot to do w/ it.
    They sit back and let others do the work that may get them in power.
    Stein is supported by the defeated not her voters.

    So the Democrats have a lot to do with it because they aren't doing anything? Huh. Interesting.
    That's the rad-neverleave logic at work

    Correct, safe to assume since this recount has raised more than twice the money her presidential campaign raised.

    I'm a Stein supportor and I really don't understand this, it's similar to Nader contesting Ohio in 2004.

    Stein has already stated that all of the money raised may not go towards the recounts.

    Yes
    funding target of 7 million almost met. 6.1 million
    https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/recount#_=_
  • Is 7million an actual number needed to have in order to get a recount?
    If so does it not seem like a rule in an otherwise rigged election that President-elect Trump was talking about?
    I mean cmon, in order to challenge the election results you magically need x amount of dollars otherwise you get what you pay for right?
    Why 7mil? Why not 8? or how about accept the loss.
    People voted.

    once you get to 10 million, you're guaranteed victory in 2020 too

    You have zero clue. Again.

    Trump: it's rigged (if I lose)
    Trump: I won (so it's not rigged)
    Trump: don't recount! It's rigged! Millions of illegals voted! All for Hillary! (Wait, is it only rigged if I lose, or....hmmmmm......carry the one.....RIGGED!!!)

    Simple fix.

    1. Go to entire system using paper ballots where you have to fill in the circle with supplied black pen.

    2. Require ID

    This takes care of computer hacking or programming issues. No excuses for foreign involvement. The ID issue insures no fraud, no illegal aliens could vote. States could issue a State ID at no cost, or low cost say $5 for those on government dependency, just reduce the ebt transactions to compensate.

    If you are someone that can't fill in the circle due to a physical ailment then you can request assistance from a family member but a polling witness would be required to represent each party on the ballot.

    If you mentally can't fill in a circle then you don't have the mental capacity to make a decision in the first place.

    Then all the crying about vote fraud pretty much goes away.

    Also, make voting a National Holiday.

    And make it so you can receive your required ID for free on Election Day.

    A quick review of history would show up that people have been crying about voter fraud since long before computerized voting systems came into play. There is always a way to game the system, so the issue becomes which risks we accept and which counter measures we choose. As usual, it largely comes down to money.

    It's almost like one candidate screaming the election was rigged beforehand and the other candidate blaming her piss poor campaign on Russian boogiemen had an undermining effect on our electoral process.

    Elimination of computer ballots is a large piece of the solution.

    Most companies allow time off to vote. I don't want a Hol(y)day to participate in government.
