All states in recount cannot have Elector votes tabulated, hence Hillary wins.

Trumps woulds have to recount CA & NY, to deny those.

Then Trump wins.

Now if too many states in “recount”, the Senate picks the President. Paul Ryan could become President.

The loophole cancels all elections by whoever uses it.

Trump needs Manafort again.

All US elections require seed cash. No poor person can become President.

Uh, no.

It doesn't matter which candidate gets the MOST electoral votes in a disputed election. If a presidential candidate doesn't get 270 electoral votes, then the president is elected in a special House election where each state gets one vote. The Republicans have majorities in most House delegations.

Just as we saw in 2000, there are so many hurdles to a Clinton victory here that they shouldn't even bother pursuing these silly recounts.

This is false. Disqualifying the 3 states electors isn't enough for her to get a majority. She must flip them.

This is also false.

The President is elected if anyone receives a majority of the electors voting. NOT a majority of 538.

It is also false because the Senate does not pick the President in the event of no majority. The Senate picks the Vice President. The President is picked by the House, with each state delegation having one vote. Trump, not Paul Ryan, would win that vote.

LOL, can you count? Trump has 306 votes and Clinton has 232.

Take away from Trump 46 votes and he still has 260. He still leads and the decision goes to the US House of Rep which is controlled by.....wait for it.....REPUBLICANS!!

They make the choice, care to guess who they will choose?

Unless more votes somehow surface, Hillary will still not win even if the three states in question are still be in recount Dec 13. Also, picking of a Pres falls to the House not the Senate.
