just new machines. like putting lipstick on a pig. it's still a pig.

There's a reason they wanted to avoid hand counting during the recounts.

I think it is past time to return to the old ballpoint pen and sheets of paper. ..purple thumbs wouldn't hurt. It is obvious the machines have caused nothing but heartache and headache...certainly haven't saved us any money.

The recount was never a real hope. It was nothing more than GP deception at the hands of the mentally bankrupt Stein.

The idea that we are always being cheated is something people should take up with their therapist

Yeah, I guess that's why millions of people donated to it because they thought it was such a waste of time.

Those willing to read what Stein put out in the first 48 hours of her money grab were able to see what she was doing. her statements on how the money will be used changes daily.

Here is a little clue. How much was raised for the recount? Fact is you have no idea. Stein is a snake oil salesman.

incorrect. I get we didn't like the results and couldn't believe white wingers are that stupid, but that is not a reason to demand a recount.

So far, I don't see where the "hacking" had any direct impact on voting, certainly nothing that would justify another election other than we are dissatisfied with the result. If there is proof of that, we have something. If it is no more than releasing some DNC emails, we need to learn how to protect emails, not put condensing info in emails, and maybe avoid improper action period.

Sure, I'd love for Clinton to sneak in, but I'm not sure it would bode well for the future of elections in this country.

That I wouldn't want to read in the newspaper.

If we were 'done in' by the contents of emails, we were dumb.

Plus, it's not hard to hack an email account when the owner (Podesta) gives you the damned password.

This whole thing is stupid.

In other words they allowed to recount what they were allowed to recount. Surprise, no changes!

absentee/early and valid provisional ballots.

When they are talking about hacking, they are talking mostly about the DNC email hack.

I don't know how anyone could possibly believe that any foreign power could hack machines which are not connected to the internet and would have to be physically approached, one by one.

If you actually know anything that would indicate that the vote is inaccurate, mention it here.

Do you - does ANYONE - seriously believe that the Russians had a team of people wandering into polling places, one by one to futz the machines as those responsible went off to take a bathroom break?

Really???

Either it turns out the way I like, or it is rigged. Ah, to live simply...
