Recountmas 2016 and a brand new TruthIsAll
« on: December 03, 2016, 07:01:29 PM »
Did a little DUmpster diving and discovered the DUmp's newest pied piper for "recountmas".

Meet "Bill Palmer".

http://www.palmerreport.com/news/philadelphia-launches-voluntary-recount-after-finding-major-vote-total-discrepancies/338/

Here's a little background on this so called journalist:

http://www.palmerreport.com/about/

Quote
Hi, I’m Bill Palmer. I’m the creator of Palmer Report. I’m a political journalist who spent the past eighteen months reporting on the 2016 election cycle from start to finish for the independent news outlet Daily News Bin, a site which received a great deal of respect from those in knowledgable political circles as well as the usual random barbs from internet trolls. As the publisher of an independent news site, I can promise you all of the following: Every one of our articles includes supporting source links for independent verification. If you’re not familiar with Palmer Report, you can use those links to confirm the accuracy of our reporting for yourself.

Some have enquired about my professional background. Prior to these past eighteen months, I have no previous background in political journalism whatsoever. And yet my reporting is often praised for being more honest and accurate and timely than the reporting that comes from those who have been doing this their entire lives. In other words, such backgrounds don’t necessarily count for much.

During the course of the election, certain internet trolls who didn’t care for my reporting style responded by obsessively spreading every comical false claim they could come up with, from my supposed secret connections to various candidates or parties or mythical political entities, to my supposed secret base in Panama. Suffice it so say that none of it is true or ever was true, and the absurdity of such conspiracies should speak for itself.

If you see a new Palmer Report article and you’re wondering why you’re not also seeing similar headlines on major news outlets, give it a few days. The way these things tend to go is that an independent news outlet pieces together the facts, lays out all the supporting evidence and sources, and takes all the heat from those who are natural skeptics – only for the bigger news outlets to eventually report the same story days later, often without acknowledging that someone like me broke it first. That’s not a complaint. It’s just a day in the life of an independent news site.

So basically, a self important DUmmy with his blog.  The site & rantings are quite similar to DUmmyville.

As for DU, they've mostly swallowed it hook, line & sinker.

Philadelphia launches voluntary recount after finding major vote total discrepancies
Source: Bill Palmer | December 2, 2016

One day after Palmer Report and other news outlets reported that a major change to the official voting totals out of Philadelphia had reduced the size of Donald Trump’s lead in Pennsylvania by more than twenty thousand votes, Philadelphia announced today that it’s launching an immediate and voluntary recount to determine if even more votes had been originally miscounted or excluded. Even as Jill Stein continues her legal battle to try to force the entire state of Pennsylvania to perform a recount, Philadelphia isn’t waiting around to find out whether a recount will be legally required.

Pennsylvania’s original vote totals had Donald Trump winning the state by just over seventy thousand votes. But the sudden revisions out of Philadelphia have now reduced the size of his overall lead to fewer than fifty thousand votes. The Philadelphia recount could shift these totals even further. The wildly shifting numbers in the state also give legal fuel to Jill Stein’a case for a statewide recount, both because the shifts suggest vote counting irregularities, and because the winning margin in the state is now even smaller.

If the vote totals shift in Pennsylvania such that Hillary Clinton ends up with the most votes in the state, either due to the voluntary Philadelphia recount or the still-litigated statewide recount, the state’s electoral votes would automatically be reassigned from Trump to Clinton. This is considered crucial, as if Clinton ends up winning all three recounted states, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan, she’ll become president-elect instead of Trump.

Look, fancy graphs too!





And another amusing thread where DUmmies discuss their new leader of Fitzmas, which shall now be called "Recountmas".

Poor dummies are grasping at straws now.  As the days wind slowly toward the official electoral vote and hope after hope is dashed cruelly against the wall, dummies will be wailing, gnashing their teeth and rending their garments.

Apparently the Occam's Razor explanation that the notoriously-corrupt Philadelphia government - having failed to crank out enough fake votes on the first pass to tip the state - might now be taking advantage of the opportunity to stuff in a bunch more.

So sad!!!

Pennsylvania shuts recount down as Stein campaign is short on initial payment.

Good news, Pennsylvania's voters won't be disenfranchised (& isn't that super duper important to the left?) like the voters in Wisconsin.

Forgot to add something. Noticed one little snarky comment in "its" bio.  Used the word "enquire" rather than "inquire".  Enquire is mostly a British term, and has a somewhat similar meaning to "inquire".  My conclusion is that this loon is or more likely wants to be British.  Or high & mighty with such terminology.

Learned such distinctions between similar words in High School journalism classes from a fantastic teacher.  So I immediately suspect people that use terminology that attempts to place ones self above the lowly reader.

Recountmas has come to a screeching halt...

Green Party-backed voters dropped a court case Saturday night that had sought to force a statewide recount of Pennsylvania’s Nov. 8 presidential election, won by Republican Donald Trump, in what Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein had framed as an effort to explore whether voting machines and systems had been hacked and the election result manipulated. 

While changing the election result was always believed to be very unlikely (even by Hillary Clinton’s own campaign), the only path to changing the outcome involved recounts in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan swinging to Clinton. By dropping the Pennsylvania case, recounts in Michigan and Wisconsin will have no change on the end result of the election. 

The Pennsylvania GOP confirmed the recount had been dropped in a statement. In the statement, the Pennsylvania GOP charged that the recount effort “clearly has no chance of changing the results and that it was done for media attention.”

It's now impossible to deny Trump his 270+ electoral votes by the counting date...

Reuters: Stein to pursue Pennsylvania recount petition in federal court
Green Party candidate Jill Stein late Saturday vowed to bring her fight for a recount of votes cast in Pennsylvania in the U.S. presidential election to federal court, after a state judge ordered her campaign to post a $1 million bond.

{snip}

“The judge’s outrageous demand that voters pay such an exorbitant figure is a shameful, unacceptable barrier to democratic participation,” Stein said in a statement. "No voter in America should be forced to pay thousands of dollars to know if her or his vote was counted."

Stein said she planned to announce "the next step" in the recount effort on Monday at a previously scheduled news conference at Trump Tower in New York City.

She said recounts already under way in some Pennsylvania counties would continue. The state's election commission had approved recounts in 75 precincts where voters requested one, but refused to allow a full forensic audit of voting machines.

2. thanks Cha!

Yes, and there are likely enough provisional and early votes stashed in Philadelphia, Detroit, and Milwaukee to put her over in all three states, so that's probably the best strategy, but this federal suit appears to be the other half of the "Stein dropping PA recount" story that's been all over the Googlesphere for a day...

No, I didn't mean that Palmer was Charnin - Bill is just another blog whore who can't accept the fact that Trump won. What I've wondered for some time was if DUmmy "Coyotl" was TruthisAll/Charnin. Charnin thinks Trump actually won:
