Why the Progressives Want a Recount They Know They Will Lose
Canada Free Press ^ | 12/01/16 | Dr. Robert Owens

Posted on 12/01/2016 3:50:34 PM PST by Sean_Anthony

If after all the devious machinations Trump still wins this will be used by the Sandernistas and the Clintonites to cry rigged system

The recount in Wisconsin and the coming ones in Michigan and Pennsylvania will not change the outcomes in any of those states.  Even though the party of Mayor Daley, Boss Tweed, and their big city machines are famous for winning recounts by finding bags of votes in candy store basements no recount has ever changed thousands of votes let alone tens of thousands.  I do not believe changing the outcome is the purpose. It is instead changing the perception of it.

I predict that they will demand the recounts are done by hand. This would make them take so long these three pivotal States would not certify their results by the last day possible for directing their Electors how to vote.  If all three states miss the deadline, Trump is at 260, Hillary at 232.  No one hits 270.

That’s a very acute angle analysis. Such a thin sliver of pie that it’s easy to pass up and is not that tasty.

With so much money being throw into it, I believe they are going for the win here. They are hoping for hand counts to push into a constitutional crisis where they can flip some electors for Hillary.

Doesn't matter, still a majority. That 270 number is just reduced to the amount needed based on the new total.

Jill Stein wants the recounts. It’s free publicity and a fundraising opportunity. Clinton’s people are going along because they don’t like Trump and like needling him, but they aren’t driving or pushing for the process. They already think Trump is illegitimate. The recount in itself isn’t going to make more people think that. But it gives pleasure to Team Hillary and the Democrat base.

They are claiming more votes were totaled than people who actually voted. If this is true, its most likely projection of their own crime on to Trump.. but still the narrative is Trump had to have been involved in fraud , to explain the so called upset victory to thier stupid followers ? My theory is that yes indeed they will find more votes were cast in total for the president race than actual voters, because the Democrats cheated like they always do and had planned this time , but what they did not account for was that trump would overwhelm their padded fraudulent Votes by a landslide. The reason now they are so confident in fraud evidenced by burning hoards money in only these states is because they perpetrated it, but they will blame the excess vote total ( which went to hillary) now on trump . Trump was not supposed to win according to stupid people and if there are more votes than voters , then stupid people will easily be swayed blame trump for the fraud ,,, Just like reported here

Or maybe some well connected people are making lots of money. Find out who is getting paid to recount the ballads. I know in PA one of the Clinton goons was doing legal work for the recount process.

Actually no. You need 270 to win via the Electoral College. What would happen is the vote would go to Congress where Trump would still win but the Dems would have accomplished what they want...making the election LOOK less legit...in THEIR eyes but not really to those who voted for Trump.

I have been wondering why conservatives are too afraid to call a liberal a liberal instead of “progressive”.

270 is not magic.
If the 3 states are not certified, their votes do not count.

The president is elected by the majority of votes.

I hope they succeed in delaying the certifications. Let THEM explain how they made sure that the votes of the people didn’t count.

Frigging idiots.

There’s absolutely nothing ‘liberal’ about the modern American Left. The ‘progressive’ label’s nothing but a threadbare euphemism for vicious totalitarians.

I think you are correct

Everything they have done is on the line, including the skeletons in their closet

They will stop at nothing.

The requirement is a majority of the electors appointed, not the theoretical maximum.

If a state does not appoint electors, that number is subtracted from the total.

538-46 = 492, a majority = 247.

If PA votes don’t count because of the Stein Shennanigans I will sue as part of a class action suit denying my right as a citizen for my legitimate vote to be counted and valued. There is no proof of what she alleges and by delaying the certification of the voting process of PA she will have denied me my rights as a citizen to participate in the historical voting process.

Actually, I am feeling a tad angry and would like to see her disgraced for this action.
