It’s day four and Jill Stein’s Wisconsin recount fiesta is going strong.
How strong? Waukesha County is live streaming their recount. It’s almost as interesting as watching paint dry. Almost:
The real game changer? THREE ABSENTEE BALLOTS ARE MISSING FROM MILWAUKEE:
It is still hard to determine exactly how many votes have changed in Wisconsin’s presidential recount based upon the Wisconsin Elections Commission spreadsheet posted Saturday night, but so far the answer seems to be not enough to change the election.Milwaukee’s totals are still missing the absentee ballot counts. So comparing partial recount totals to election night totals does not accurately reflect any changes in the count for one candidate over another. The WEC says, “Milwaukee counts its absentee ballots centrally (not at the polling place) on Election Night. When those absentee ballots have been counted the numbers will be updated.”…Other changes in the spreadsheet were one vote or less per reporting unit that has been completely recounted. Because those changes amount to at most a few hundred votes, Donald Trump’s 27,000 vote lead over Hilary Clinton does not appear to be in jeopardy.
If Jill Stein was hoping to prove the integrity of our election process as she claims, then I’d say she’s the results thus far speak for themselves.
