Why I think the vote count is more or less accurate
 
 
 Minnesota. Trump came within 1.5 points of winning Minnesota. Minnesota hasn't gone Republican since Nixon was reelected, but it came close this time. http://www.politico.com/2016-election/results/map/president/minnesota/

Our Governor and Secretary of State are Democrats. We had no voter repression. In fact, the state made it easier to vote by opening up early voting locations and no-excuse absentee voting. We also have same-day voter registration. I trust the count in my state. For Minnesota to come so close to going for Trump, there had to be a pro-Trump effect across the country.

I don't think the recount will alter the outcome. Remember, Clinton has to win all three states (WI, MI, and PA) to overturn Trump. I think the Dems aren't asking for recounts because they don't think it will alter the outcome.

I would like nothing more than to be wrong, but I have to think logically about this so as not to get my hopes up.

9. Here's why I disagree:
 
Michigan - More African-American voters than MN, and many thousands of ballots reported with no presidential vote from Detroit;
Wisconsin - 85% voter turnout and other anomalies in the county reports;
Pennsylvania - Anomalous R wins in Luzerne and similar counties.

So if the recounts go forward I'm prepared to be disappointed but I'd say the odds of waking up and finding out that Hillary is going be inaugurated are about 50-50

There are not going to be any recounts you retard.

11. PA won't be easy but if the other two are reversed
 
all bets are off and I would not rule out a revote. Don't forget that the designated perp is Russia which will make extraordinary measures acceptable, also that the Supreme Court is likely to be invoked at some point and if Kennedy sides with the recount she wins.

Another retard. Everywhere I look.... retards.

They set themselves up for disappointment.

Hopes of a recount
Hopes of a redo of the election
Hopes of intimidating electoral college members
Hopes of the DNC doing something.

When nothing comes through, they fall further and further into despair.

I only wish that site had been up on election night. The responses as one state after another fell to Trump would have made me stand up and give myself a high five. But $kimmer, with his wifes ties to the DNC, knew the exit polling and knew Pickles Von Cankles was going to lose. He turned the site off and blamed a hacker, all so the place wouldn't absolutely explode election night.
Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

They're REALLY suckin' on a bong when they start talking about a re-vote.

Even if Stein doesn`t run off with their money while laughing the first recount that comes through and says Trump won the state will be rejected out of hand with some new conspiracy theory.

The fact is that,as usual,they come up with a notion and then believe it to be true.
A recount is not a repeat of the hanging chad debacle,it is simply a recheck of ballot totals.

We lost so it had to be stolen. We told everyone that if they didn't vote for her royal majesty that they were stupid, racist, sexist, homophobic, and yada, yada, yada so it had to be stolen.

The Democrat memes have become awfully clear.  The latest seems to be "blame Russia".
