What Happened to Jill Stein's Recount Millions?
The Green Party candidate last filed a form with the FEC since September 2017. And it looks likely that there won’t be a vote on how to use the unspent recount funds.

Shortly after the 2016 election, Jill Stein raised more than $7 million from shell-shocked liberals eager to pursue a swing-state recount. Two years later, the U.S. Green Party’s last candidate for president is still spending that money.
Ongoing litigation, travel costs, and staff salaries are also likely to eat up whatever is left, meaning those who donated to Stein are unlikely to receive a once-promised chance to vote on how the post-recount money would be spent. Nor have donors been given much of a window into how Stein is actually spending their donations.
The last FEC filing from the Stein campaign was for the month of September 2017. And the last update from the campaign itself came in a post on April 20, in which it said it was down to $932,178 in recount funds.
“It is strange that they would just stop filing reports given they were a legitimate, professional campaign, and despite still having more than a million dollars in cash on hand,” Andrew Mayersohn, a researcher at the Center for Responsive Politics, told The Daily Beast.

16. Perhaps since Stein easily outsmarted her loyal followers, she was led
to believe she could hoodwink the rest of us.
Ain't happening. EXPOSED!
Is happening. ALREADY HAPPENED!

7. How much came from DUers?
I hope a lot came from DUpipo but they are notorious cheapskates so they probably didn't give a whole hell of a lot to the effort even though they talked about doing it.

11. A fool and their money are easily parted.
And with all the fools on the left, 7 million dollars can pile up pretty quick.

What happened to it? The exact thing we told you was going to happen to it, you stupid idiot. She held out a smidgen of hope to you shell shocked dems and you opened your wallets. The money flowed in, she took it and ran, laughing her ass off all the way to the bank. And the kicker is.... Donald J Trump is still the president of the USA!!!!
We predicted all this back in November of 2016. Did you listen? No... no you did not. And you idiots call President Trump a con man? :lmao:

Judging from the numbers of hearts and stars they buy, there's enough wool to supply blankets to the Chinese army.

Heh, I’d forgotten about the recounts. Seeing this now reminds me of just how off the rails the libs were following the election.
Good times.

And Skinner and the rest of the management of DU thank you for your foolishness.

IIRC, there were DUpipo among those fools, and even more DUpipo cheered Stein's challenge(s).

To be fair, the "Russians" took down DU for a few days so they had no idea what to do or say until it came back online. Giving Jill money probably seemed like a good idea at the time.
