Will lefties be even more butthurt when the recount doesn't steal the election?

For someone who is so keen to point out he actually bothered to blow a vote on that bozo libertarian candidate who didn't know what Aleppo was, you seem strangely anxious to act entitled to gloat on behalf of the Trump voters.

Tell us again, Denny, why DIDN'T you vote for our glorious leader-in-waiting? How has he won you over now? Maybe you like him because you're pretty certain he doesn't know what "a leppo" is either?

Makes you wonder why the Trumpsters are so up in arms about it, doesn't it?

Not really. Lawyering is what lawyers do. If you can take even a .001% chance of a bad result down to 0% by winning an appeal, that's a smart play.

Kind of depends on the cost, doesn't it?

Hillary forgot that she wasn't actually shot at by snipers in Bosnia. Obama forgot there were only 50 states. Trump had no friggin' clue what the nuclear triad was. If you run for office, you're going to make some screwups.

I have yet to see anyone, lefty or otherwise, who thinks the recounts will change the result.

Yeah, but they get to relive LOSING a few more times.

He hasn't won me over. I'm judging him on what he actually does. So far, few complaints. But he's not the president yet, with all the power and congressional support, too.

What I am sure is that your twitter feed is overflowing with a bunch of crying babies.
 
I highly doubt this recount changes things at all. What it is doing though is shedding light on the fact that a lot of the voting machines can be easily manipulated and are prone to errors. I'v never been a fan of the voting machines and I like the fact people are now becoming more aware of the problems that arise from them using them.

Wisconsin Recount Officials Just Found Five Counting Machines With Tampered Seals

Despite the best efforts of President-elect Donald Trump and his nefarious brand of twisted politics to prevent a recount in Wisconsin it is in full swing. Those who are observing the recount on behalf of Jill Stein, who requested the recount, have presented evidence to show the votes were indeed tampered with.

An individual, who is known only as “Wendy” has been on the ground in St. Croix County in Wisconsin. That county is performing both a recount of the machines used, and of all ballots which were cast by hand. As was shared by Wendy, she observed that five seals were broken on nine voting machines.The evidence which has been posted on Jill Stein’s official website shows that seals were indeed broken. The seals themselves come with a warning that “removal of seal voids warranty.”

From your own source.

"At this time it is difficult to dispute that the voting machines were indeed tampered with, but what is not known is if they were tampered with before the election or after. There is no timeline to know when the machines were originally issued, or if they were used in previous elections."

Sounds like these voting machines needed a safe space.
 
Uhhh, the seals are for a manufacturer warranty if the machines break. Whatever those machines are they look as old as shit so probably out of warranty anyway. That doesn't look like a seal you would see on your gas pump that verifies you aren't getting ripped off by the gas station.
 
Fuck I love Oregon's voting system. Ballot comes right to my house. I can vote in the privacy of my home safely, on a paper ballot.

The only thing I don't like about the Oregon system is you do not have any sort of identification on your ballot. It's all on the outside. So some seedy individual COULD tamper with your ballot and we have no way of tracking it.

You can get complete tracking of your ballot via text and email if you sign up for it.

I just checked for WashCO and you can see if it was received but it doesn't tell you who they counted it for. So half-way there! But still good stuff.

If there was going to be fraud with votes it would have happened this year with the increase in the corporate tax. No one would have blinked twice because the assumption would have been that all if the people who voted for Hillary also voted for the tax.

Yeah I hear you. I am not insinuating any wrong doing. I was just thinking of better ways to have accountability for the vote and tracking for the citizens. Then things like recounts would be a thing of the past.

Didn't you hear? the recount actually founded that votes in other states were counted wrong, and Donald won Oregon too!

That would actually be very troubling if true and would require the scrapping of our voting process in the state.
 
Wisconsin recount so far:

Day 4 totals:
Trump gained 356 votes
Trump lost 246 votes
Trump net gain on day 4: 110 votes

Clinton gained 296 votes
Clinton lost 225 votes
Clinton net gain on day 4: 71 votes

Thus, Trump has inched ahead by another net 39 votes as of day 4 of the recount.

Edit: and for the dingle berries that want proof. http://elections.wi.gov/node/4513
