Right, you don't think it's shady if she is doing this just to move up a percentage point or two?
I'm not saying Jill Stein is part of some massive conspiracy. This just seems like standard shady shit politicians do. It's just strange we're all supposed to just shrug our shoulders and go along with these petty games people play.

Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein explains.
Each vote builds a party for the 99 percent.
I think we all completely understand what you are saying. Each vote counts for this person, she's like a vampire who has been starved for centuries, each drop of blood matters.
What I am saying is these people are shady for doing this to get a few more votes. It doesn't have to be a conspiracy to knock out Trump in order for it to be shady, it can be shady on a smaller level.

D.J. Trump Election Day: Speaking to Fox News
"It's largely a rigged system. And you see it at the polling booths too."
"There are reports that when people vote for Republicans, the entire ticket switches over to Democrats. You've seen that, it's happening at various places today, it's been reported."
"In other words, the machines - you put down a Republican and it registers as a Democrat."
Asked if he would accept the election result if he lost, he said:
"We're going to see how things play out."
"And I want to see everything honest.
"If you look at Philadelphia, if you look at St Louis, if you look at Chicago, President Obama eight years ago was quoted as saying essentially its as corrupt as can be, the polling booths in Chicago."

Green Party initiate Recount in Wisconsin
Saturday Nov 26
Jill Stein:
"I will do a recount for any state where the deadline has not passed. Help my staff find state deadlines."

Hillary Clinton 2016 Democrat Campaign Counsel Marc Elias:
"Now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides,”
“We certainly understand the heartbreak felt by so many who worked so hard to elect Hillary Clinton, and it is a fundamental principle of our democracy to ensure that every vote is properly counted,”
D.J. Trump Sunday Nov 27
“This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded, and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing.”
Wisconsin Elections Board Admin Michael Haas Friday Nov 25
'The Wisconsin Elections Commission today received two recount petitions from the Jill Stein for President Campaign and from Rocky Roque De La Fuente.'
'The Commission is preparing to move forward with a statewide recount of votes for President of the United States, as requested by these candidates,'
"We have assembled an internal team to direct the recount, we have been in close consultation with our county clerk partners, and have arranged for legal representation by the Wisconsin Department of Justice,"
"We plan to hold a teleconference meeting for county clerks next week and anticipate the recount will begin late in the week after the Stein campaign has paid the recount fee, which we are still calculating."

statement
The people have spoken and the election is over, and as Hillary Clinton herself said on election night, in addition to her conceding by congratulating me, "We must accept this result and then look to the future.
This recount is just a way for Jill Stein, who received less than one percent of the vote overall and wasn't even on the ballot in many states, to fill her coffers with money, most of which she will never even spend on this ridiculous recount.
All three states were won by large numbers of voters, especially Pennsylvania, which was won by more than 70,000 votes.
This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded, and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing.

"The Green Party scam to fill up their coffers by asking for impossible recounts is now being joined by the badly defeated & demoralized Dems"

Pamela Brown:
'First off Dr Stein, Thank You for coming on this show to talk about this.'
'What is Your reaction to Trump’s scathing statement about you?'
Dr Jill Stein:
'Well , you know I’m, I’m really glad he’s talking about it and I feel honoured that he’s blaming the recount effort on me.'
'I think this is, this is, clearly a grass roots, uh very people powered campaign, powered by over 110 000 donors contributing on average 45 dollars.'
'And For his information, this is actually all going into a dedicated and segregated account so that it can only be spent on the recount campaign.'
'So, uhm you know He may be creating his own facts here, as he’s been known to do sometimes in the past. And I think you know, he himself said that it was a rigged election unless he won it.'
'But I think that sort of shall we say, not exactly compelling thinking is not particularly persuasive to the american people.'
'This is an election y’know, a very bitter and divisive election.'
'The American people are looking for a positive way forward that will protect our right to vote. Not only against Republicans, but against Democrats. And as we know, there are concerns about 3 states in particular as examples of potential hacking. But there was likewise in the democratic primary. And I myself was very disappointed when Bernie Sanders did not mount a challenge.'
'This point to drive home here is that having a secure elections process benefits us all.'
'And I invite everyone.'
'I invite Donald Trump’s Campaign,' 'Hillary's Campaign.'
'We've had calls out to Gary Johnson's Campaign.'
'This should be a non partisan people powered effort to ensure that we can rely on the integrity and security of our votes"
Jill Stein went on to say in the full interview she had
'no contact with the Clinton campaign'
and added
'I have said consistently that if there are questions about the accuracy and security I would challenge it no matter who was the winner.'
But nobody cares what Stein says, it's what she does, and her actions are shady.
Once again: even if it's just to get more votes or even one more vote: that is shady. Illegal? No. Shady? Yes.
She's not going to come out and admit this, she is delusional enough to think it might help her become president in 2020 or some stupid shit like that.
Everyone seems to go back and forth. Trump said it was rigged, but then he mocked others after the election for saying it(though he had the right to call them on their hypocrisy IMO). But then he also is now saying illegals voted. The left said the system wasn't rigged, Stein who is GP also said it, but now after the election suddenly it is, but only in 3 key states Hilary lost of course.
This isn't going to really end with people having a lot of faith in this system. Or really any of the parties. Which is probably why the Obama administration just wanted Clinton to accept the results and be done with it.

George Martin - Green Party of America National Committe. G.P. Wis. Former Co Chairman.
CNN
Wisconsin Green Party *co-chairman* George Martin said that they were seeking a reconciliation of paper records -- a request that would go one step further than a simple recount, spurring, he said, an investigation into the integrity of the state's voting system.
The announcement came as Green Party candidate Jill Stein's Thanksgiving fundraising blitz passed $5 million. The money is well beyond the $2 million mark the Green Party initially set, and Wisconsin party officials said that any additional money not used for the recount would be used to train Green Party candidates for local office. The goal as of Friday was to raise $7 million.

I find it hard to believe it's only 3 states and only in states Clinton lost that have these systems.
The 3 states don't even have the same systems. Michigan, for instance, has no electronic voting.
The results in New Hampshire I think were closer than in Michigan or Wisconsin, but Trump lost there. Where is Stein for a recount there?
