Pennsylvania voters needed immediately for recount movement

Shared from FB:

I know there are no fans of Jill Stein here, and a number are lukewarm or even cold on the recount efforts. However... PA voters especially, have a listen.
1) These recount efforts seriously get under DT's skin and distract from his work of naming horrible people to his cabinet. It keeps him on the defensive, and the longer that happens, the more likely he is to do something stupid and keep media attention on it (e.g. claim 2 million people voted illegally).
2) Everyone acknowledges a recount is unlikely to change the outcome and even if it did, it'd never make it through the republican house.
3) This requires no monetary effort (other than possibly paying a notary, and that wouldn't go to Stein anyhow). Recounts and audits, regardless of outcome, are an important safeguard in the face of foreign and domestic meddling (I'm looking at you, Comey). I honestly feel like if the effort in PA can be backed as a grassroots piss-off-DT effort, if nothing else, and that'd send a serious message, even if the outcome isn't different. Consider filing your affidavit and encourage other Hillary supporters to do so as well.



There is an urgent call for Pennsylvania voters needed immediately for recount movement. If 3 voters in each Precinct in PA can’t be found to sign an affidavit, we will lose PA in this recount. Please go to Jill Stein’s website at http://www.jill2016.com/recountpa to print out the Affidavit.
