Hillary Clinton is being urged by a group of prominent computer scientists and election lawyers to call for a recount in three swing states won by Donald Trump...Those states are Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, whose combined 46 electoral votes are enough to swing the result...
the scientists, led by University of Michigan computer scientist J. Alex Halderman, “so far have only a circumstantial case”
in all three states the deadline for requesting a recount is within the next week...
the theory here is that Russia hacked into the three states’ vote-counting systems and produced just enough votes for Trump (or destroyed enough for Mrs. Clinton) to give him the edge...we are supposed to believe that the Russians understood the politics of the Great Lakes region better than the operators of the vaunted Clinton machine did. ... preposterous on its face.
FiveThirtyEight’s Nate Silver: "Some *very* quick analysis which suggests the claim here of rigged results... is probably BS"...
the most likely explanation is that the polls were systematically wrong, rather than that the election was hacked.

In other words, they want a chance to "discover" some previously uncounted mail in ballots that just happened to be in the trunk of some DNC operative's car, and just happen to be overwhelmingly for Clinton. Imagine that. No thanks.
...so far have only a circumstantial case...
Well, I could build an equally convincing circumstantial case that it was really Jim Morrison and Elvis, returned with the aliens that abducted them, who used alien mind-control technology to rig the election. Just as convincing, and just as real.
Note that the final canvas of Michigan has reduced Trumps win there by 3500 votes to 9528. Highly unusual for that many votes to change during a canvas.
Thank God were not relying on Michigan for the win. She would be finding votes for another month.
Their polling was such bullsh** they are still having a hard time accepting the harridan lost.
They’re basically trying to delegitimize the election. Same thing they did with Bush. The leftist conspiracy theorists need something to chew on for 4-8 years
Has anybody noticed that since Trump said he didn’t want to go after Hillary, all of a sudden the election isn’t valid? NOW if he decided to go after her, it would look like hatefulness on his part.
Trump is a decent guy. He clearly doesn’t understand the depth of the deception and depravity Clinton is under. He’s going to have to get his ass handed to him a few times more before he gets the drift. :(
And PA is all that Trump needed: MI and WI were auxilliary.
A computer model--the only "evidence" for global warming.
Thanks! I really hope this goes nowhere.
I will sleep better when I know that it takes 37 electors to flip. Pull out Wisconsin and Michigan and we’re talking 11. I’d worry at that point. Extremely unlikely, but still.
Back in 200 Al Gore conceded then retracted his concession, then the "fun" began.
Yeah they know that no one will ask for recounts or investigations. They’re doing this for only one reason... to plant the seed that the election was stolen and that Trump is illegitimate.
Let them bitch. This only furthers cements their image as the party of whiny children/BLM.
There are sporadic reports of people who registered to vote in the 1960s and still do - meaning lots of 100+ year old voters.
This is from 2012
North Carolina Finds 2,214 Registered Voters over the Age of 110

Gore did.
This is for Pennsylvania
http://www.theacru.org/more-than-100-years-old-and-still-voting/
So the short answer is - we don’t know, but we know they do exist.
“Weird Science: Can a mad experiment bring Hillary’s campaign back to life?”
“It’s alive! It’s alive!” FrankenHillary! Run for your lives! Run for your lives! Don’t forget your wallet or pocketbook!
The Clintons have to be heartened by news that there’s only “a circumstantial case” for this, as circumstantial cases have always worked in their favor.
Thanks!
Not to mention the other 3.5 foreign votes found by TrueThe Vote. Mostly in LA
3.5 million vote - sorry
And we know what geniuses they are.
