If there is something wrong with her votes, it will be more evidence that there is something wrong with the outcome.

She is asking for money but I don't see her outline a case. Just give money.

In Michigan Hillary lost by .3% of the vote. Stein received 1.1%, similar thing in Wisconsin and other critical states

I hate to say this, but when you get to this point it's over

If she somehow believes this will redeem her conscience, it won't

who were planning to vote for her to vote for Hillary before election day. She didn't do that, though, and they voted uselessly for her.

Way to go, there, Jill. No donations for you.
