Stein Vows Appeal After Obama-Appointed Judge Shuts Down Recount: Days after ordering a recount, an Obama-appointed federal judge in Michigan has ended Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein’s efforts in Michigan, one that Stein acknowledged included zero chance of changing the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. Stein now says she will appeal.
Federal law requires the Electoral College to be ready to cast its votes to elect the next president by December 19, 2016. Stein sued on December 2, challenging the pause required by Michigan law as unconstitutional, under which a recount could not begin until December 7—two days after the state canvassing board denied her objections to their certifying the result.
