Michigan Poised to end this nonsense once and for all.
Canvassers meet today to determine if they ‘accept’ the objection to the recount.
As best I can tell, (with a minor exception of two) the scheduled recount counties are those which have a traditionally higher Democrat voting, an/or did fairly well for the indicted criminal, Hillary Clinton. If there were errors or machine missed/uncounted ballots, the percentages advantage Democrats in these counties.
If you are in the most conservative areas, Jill Stein (AKA Campaign for Hillary) does not want to recount your votes.
If the objection is accepted by the board of canvassers, its done, and Trump Wins Michigan. If they do not accept the objection, then next Tuesday will be the beginning of the ‘fun.’
Stay tuned.

Argument ....................................................................................................................... 4
I. No recount may proceed because Jill Stein is not an “aggrieved” party as a matter of Michigan law. .............................................................................. 4
II. This Court should immediately order that no recount may begin until two business days after the State Board of Canvassers resolves any objections to the recount petition. ...................................................................... 8
III. This Court should immediately order the State Defendants to complete any recount by December 13, 2016, or else certify to the federal government on or before that date the initial elector results announced on November 28, 2016. ...................................................................................... 10
IV. Because it is not possible to complete a statewide hand recount before December 13, 2016, this Court should order that any recount, if allowed to proceed, must be done electronically. ............................................. 15
Conclusion and Relief Requested ................................................................................ 18
Clever..
In other words.. Half way through the recount, it should be done.
In otherwords, Jason, after the first precinct is counted, it should be done. But, just in case, we all signed up to be recount folks. Can't let a recount go without participating. . .ya know how it goes.
Sue,
The Michigan Republican Party wouldn't have had to beg for recount volunteers if Michigan recount 'law' had indeed ever been afforded a much larger priority than the hundreds of much less urgent (stupid) statutes that they continuously begged us to give them credit for eliminating.
My hope is that this costs us literally millions and that the above fact becomes a significant issue in 2018 for majority control "priority Republicans" crafting "priority agendas" for so many years.
Enjoy yourself! (just don't ask yourself or a Republican leader exactly why you are there or mention "Pennsylvania" Republican leadership competence and why there are all home sitting by the fire instead).
Given that none of us believe that Republicans didn't understand the uncaring incompetence/corruption that this law has exhibited since its birth...not to mention and that they could have literally *changed* same (anytime) given their long running majorities (they never even tried)..we can only assume the worst as to their overall character in this regard and blame every single one of them (Democrats as well) when this boondoggle comes up (again) in 2018.
Claiming to not understand exactly which laws need prioritizing/fixing on any given day while bragging of 'eliminating' those which any idiot could in their sleep ...is akin to claiming that you did not know that our children were being poisoned until Uncle Rick told you so at the same time that he did the rest of us.
Pure incompetence and/or what they planned to do to Democrats in a recount if given half a chance (period).
