[pols, curr ev, election2016] Recount: It's Happening

[siderea]

Stein, the Green party’s candidate in the presidential election, formally filed for a recount with Wisconsin authorities shortly before the state’s 5pm deadline on Friday. She also planned to request recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania in the coming days

I entirely agree, although, if it turns out there was a massive multi-state pro-Dumpster voting hack, then either (likely) Russia was behind it, or Russia will be blamed as a compromise to keep the populace from attempting to string up the Dumpster or the GOP leadership, meaning that war with Russia (as well as likely riots in the US) are both very possible. I'm rather horrified that I'm looking at this as an incredibly hopeful alternative.

According to the Pennsylvania volunteer page on Stein's site:

In addition to the costs of a recount, we also need to find at least three voters in each election district willing to submit an affadavit to their county board of elections requesting a recount. We will be working with our legal team to develop the affadavit language to send to those willing to do so.

Please tick that option below, if you are able to do so.

I had no idea that was necessary, and it isn't on the donation page. I hope they get enough people to sign up, but in the meantime, can you add it to your post?

Done! Thank you!
