The political world was a buzz on Saturday evening with headlines from major news outlet screaming that Jill Steins recount effort in Pennsylvania was over or finished after she withdrew her statewide recount request. But as it turns out, those headlines arent even close to being true. The real story, buried in the fine print of some of these mainstream media articles, is that
Stein is switching to an entirely new strategy in Pennsylvania which is aimed at forcing a statewide recount to happen.
Now that voluntary vote total revisions from various Pennsylvania precincts and counties have reduced Donald Trumps lead to around just 0.8% from its original 1.2%, Jill Stein is changing her strategy. Pennsylvania state law requires an automatic statewide recount if the winning margin is 0.5% or less. And so Stein is now pursuing
county level recounts in the hope that the corrected numbers will indeed shrink Trumps lead below the threshold.
How do we know this? We have to read closely. For instance, buried in the seventh paragraph of an eight paragraph article in the Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper whose headline falsely claims Stein drops recount effort, we find the actual story: Steins campaign intends to continue its county-by-county recount effort in Pennsylvania, said attorney Larry Otter. That requires efforts in individual precincts a process that requires three voters to petition their local election boards.
