RonC Member since: Nov 7, 2012 Threads: 8 Posts: 2510 | Seems like their were some voting irregularities: "The problems were the worst in Detroit, where discrepancies meant officials couldn't recount votes in 392 precincts, or nearly 60 percent. And two-thirds of those precincts had too many votes. "There's always going to be small problems to some degree, but we didn't expect the degree of problem we saw in Detroit. This isn't normal," said Krista Haroutunian, chairwoman of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers." http://insider.foxnews.com/2016/12/14/steins-recount-turns-more-votes-voters-detroit Too many votes, as in more votes cast in a particular race than folks that actually were shown to have voted... It isn't evidence of "widespread fraud" but enough of these little stories put together sure does show why we have to keep the vote safe from illegal voters, screwed up machines, and every other thing that changes the count. The national races are decided by thousands of votes or more in most cases. Local votes are often decided by very few votes. |

They only amounted to hundreds for the big race, not enough to help Hillary much. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

It isn't about "helping Hillary" or "hurting Trump" at all--it is about keeping the vote honest. It'll never be 100% perfect but that should be the standard we look to attain with any voting laws...getting it right without regard to who the candidates are. Legal voters casting legal votes properly and then having them counted as cast. |

This is too rich. Not only do they not only not help Hillary but they show the very fraud the liberals say in the places they say it was not happening. More reason for Voter ID laws! The President is a fink. |

The Detroit story illustrates how effective the EC is over winner take all. Any illegal votes cast in MI didn't effect any votes outside of MI. 100 extra Hillary votes in MI won't cancel 100 Trump votes in FL. That's what happens in banana republics, one illegal vote cancels one legit vote anywhere in the country. It makes it very worthwhile to rig the system. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

AZDuffman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 135 Posts: 18255 | On his YouTube channel Dick Morris today speculated that Hillary is running this recount and EC thing as part of keeping her options open for 2020. I said weeks ago that I am not so sure she goes away quietly. It will be interesting. No real Democrat bench exists. Dopey feminists will want her to run again. It really will not affect things for nearly 2 years, but as midterms come up if she is still playing games it will freeze a lot of big money and power. Some may think she is a better shot than an unknown, so I am not at all counting it out. The President is a fink. |

It would be wonderful to see a 73 year old Hillary to get beaten again. If you think she had no energy this time, wait till they have to throw her in the back of the van 4 times a week. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

He needs to stop sniffing airplane glue or whatever he's doing. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Why? What he says makes perfect sense. Has she denounced the whole recount thing? I mean, she was so upset at Trump at the debate you would think she would tell her supporters to give it up for the good of the USA. The President is a fink. |
