When is a recount a sham?
« on: November 26, 2016, 12:16:39 PM »
DUmmies already setting the table so that when the recounts end up still handing the election to Trump, they claim they were rigged.

When is a recount a sham?
When is a recount a sham?
Election Watch November 25, 2016

Recounts provide a peaceful dispute mechanism to help ensure that elections will be free and fair and equal to all. But the mere act of having a recount is not what helps elections be free and fair. The recount must be accountable to the public and fully transparent.

There is a great deal at stake in any recount. Observers should not make assumptions that every recount is honest, or that every statement made by public officials is true. The purpose of observation is authentication, and this responsibility should be taken seriously.

SYMPTOMS OF A SHAM RECOUNT

1) Is observation meaningful? That is, can public observers see and document the marks on each ballot?

Example: A contentious Pima County, Arizona election in 2006 resulted in litigation, culminating later in an offer to recount the ballots. However, the count was set up such that observers were unable to observe the marks on the ballot, and could only observe “the process” (people walking about in a room, moving boxes, handling papers).

All recounts should be conducted in “public meeting” — which means with public notice as to time and place, and permitting any person to conduct meaningful observation, which must include the ability to actually see that the marks on the ballot correspond to the verbal count. .............

Isn't a sham something one would use to wipe things?

7. Yep

And for God's sake, don't try to insert any sanity into the conspiracy conversations; you'll be accused of having an ulterior motive for doing so.

The chances of Hillary Clinton winning this election due to recounts is about the same as monkeys flying out of my ass...

Actually, much lower.

all Stein did was pay the filing fee. The recount it self must now be paid for. Stuff like this aint cheap, and the State will not recount for free.

The Governor of WI is a wise old bird, he has been fighting Democrat dirty tricks for a long time.
There will be no boxes for forgotten ballots suddenly found.

It's so damn obvious.... yeeesh, idiots.  When it doesn't go your way?  Complete mental breakdown.
