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.

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.

Only if she pays all the money to herself as salary. If she finds a way to write it all off she walks away free and clear. De La Fuente as walked with $7 million and is now hiding in Cuba. How is that for an FU?

Wisconsin is pretty much saying they got it right and they doubt any good would come of the scam that Stein and company are trying to foist on the People - good news from Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania today.

In 2000 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the U.S. Constitution gave the Secretary of State and the State Legislature of FL the final word on how recounts will be conducted. It’s going to be near impossible for a Federal Court to order a hand recount in light of the 2000 ruling.

A State Court in WI might issue an order for a hand count, but would likely be overruled by the WI Supreme Court which has a Republican majority.

I look for the WI Republican Electors to be able to cast votes with no problem on 12/19, which is when the Electoral College votes.

“BTW, did you know that De La Fuente filed his recount petition from Cuba with the help of the state department?”

source?

Jill Stein should get a letter from the Secretary of State of Wisconsin certifying that she lost, with a bill for a million dollars.

IF they end up with a hand count, I would think that the $1.1 million ESTIMATE would be very short.

“Apparently the PA recount is now dead!”

Not really. Stein filed her lawsuit in Pennsylvania just today:
