The commission set up a timeline for the recount: Cost estimates and vote tabulation method must be provided by county clerks on Monday; Stein and Rocky De La Fuente, an independent candidate who also asked for a recount, must pay for the recounts on Tuesday; a teleconference will take place on Wednesday to outline the process; and the rules and the recount will officially begin by Thursday.

Once again not a dime has been paid for these recounts, so no recounts are going to be scheduled until millions are paid to the state governments and the candidates have until Tuesday to ante up.

BTW, did you know that De La Fuente filed his recount petition from Cuba with the help of the state department? He also walked away with $7 million in government funds.

This is dedicated to all the suckers out there.

I thought she had to pay it (Wisconsin) in full by Friday November 25, 2016 or so I remember reading.

Well apparently she has until Tuesday because they had to estimate the costs which means whatever she pays Tuesday is only a down payment. The state will need more and will have to pay additional costs.

You cannot pay costs until the State estimates costs.

Wisconsin Elections Commission unanimously okays timeline for presidential recount

MADISON — The Wisconsin Elections Commission has unanimously
approved a timeline for the presidential vote recount in the state.

Here’s a look at what was established on Monday morning, November 28th:
•4:30 p.m. Monday: Wisconsin Elections Commission will provide estimated recount
fee to the petitioning candidates. (A preliminary estimate is around $1.1 million.)
•4:30 p.m. Tuesday: Petitioning candidates must pay recount
fee in full.
•10 a.m. Wednesday: Elections Commission will hold a
teleconference with clerks about the recount process.
•Thursday, Dec. 1: Commission wants the recount to begin
in all 72 counties.
•Monday, Dec. 12: Commission wants county clerks to submit
recount results by 8:00 p.m.
•Tuesday, Dec. 13: Commission will meet to certify results
by federally mandated deadline.

As of now, county clerks are allowed to conduct recount by hand or by machine. That would
change only if a judge orders clerks to hand-count all ballots.

It will be very interesting to see who pays what.

Will Stein pay the estimated $1 million? Will De La Fuente smoking his Havanas in Cuba pay some? Will Hillary pay some?

What is that saying? Money talks a BS walks!!! My bet is that BS walks.

I keep saying over and over again that nothing is happening until money is paid. The rest is a waste of time.

Yes, I get that, but delaying until tomorrow is not “promptly”.

Apparently he got $7 million in federal funds and claims it has all been spent from Cuba where there is no extradition treaty.

The pledges were from Hillary snowflakes desperate for another hit of delusion. I can’t see Trumpets contributing to her scam.

Will Jill have to pay taxes on the money she got for the recounts? This isn’t part of any political campaign nor is she a tax free entity.
