Confusion... now they’re saying that this order is to be held in abeyance?? Suspended their own order to stop the recount?? Here's the best I can figure it out.

1. Last Friday Michigan Election Commission allowed Recount to proceed (they actually tied 2-2 which allowed the recount to go forward).

2. Michigan law allows 2 business days to prepare for a recount.

3. Stein went to federal court to get the 2 days waved and allow the recount to start Monday instead of Wednesday.

4. Federal Judge (Obama Appointee) agreed with Stein, but went farther and ORDERED the recount to continue unless he stopped it.

5. The federal appeals court (this ruling) said the Obama judge exceeded his authority and could not change election law regarding the recount or order it to continue.

6. However since the state has not stopped the recount as of yet, it will still continue unless the state shuts it down.

7. The Michigan AG currently has a case before the State Supreme Court to do just that (5-2 Republican majority court by the way).
