Desperate Libs Urge Hillary Clinton Campaign to Challenge Election Results in 3 Swing States
Posted in: 2016 Elections,Hillary Clinton,Presidential Election
WASN’T IT THE LEFT THAT WAS BELLYACHING THAT TRUMP WAS NOT GOING TO ACCEPT THE OUTCOME OF THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION?
Remember when prior to the election the LEFT and Hillary Clinton lost their minds when Donald Trump stated that he would withhold judgement as to whether he would accept the results of the election in case their was fraud? Now, the Libs in just another example of hypocrisy are questioning the election and want to challenge the vote count in three swing states without any proof what-so-ever of voter fraud. They just are speculating because how else could Trump have won. UNREAL. The Clinton campaign is actually considering this.
Of course I said I would agree to the will of the people’s vote, that was before I lost
Hillary Clinton is being urged by a group of prominent computer scientists and election lawyers to call for a recount in three swing states won by Donald Trump, New York has learned. The group, which includes voting-rights attorney John Bonifaz and J. Alex Halderman, the director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, believes they’ve found persuasive evidence that results in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania may have been manipulated or hacked. The group is so far not speaking on the record about their findings and is focused on lobbying the Clinton team in private.
Last Thursday, the activists held a conference call with Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta and campaign general counsel Marc Elias to make their case, according to a source briefed on the call. The academics presented findings showing that in Wisconsin, Clinton received 7 percent fewer votes in counties that relied on electronic-voting machines compared with counties that used optical scanners and paper ballots. Based on this statistical analysis, Clinton may have been denied as many as 30,000 votes; she lost Wisconsin by 27,000. While it’s important to note the group has not found proof of hacking or manipulation, they are arguing to the campaign that the suspicious pattern merits an independent review — especially in light of the fact that the Obama White House has accused the Russian government of hacking the Democratic National Committee.
According to current tallies, Trump has won 290 Electoral College votes to Clinton’s 232, with Michigan’s 16 votes not apportioned because the race there is still too close to call. It would take overturning the results in both Wisconsin (10 Electoral College votes) and Pennsylvania (20 votes), in addition to winning Michigan’s 16, for Clinton to win the Electoral College. There is also the complicating factor of “faithless electors,” or members of the Electoral College who do not vote according to the popular vote in their states. At least six electoral voters have said they would not vote for Trump, despite the fact that he won their states.
