Jill Stein raises nearly $5M for recount

Posted by | November 25, 2016 09:37 | Filed under: Politics

Green Party candidate Jill Stein has raised almost $5 million to fund a recount.

 Stein first set a goal to raise $2.5 million to fund a recount in in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania based off a report from New York Magazine that said prominent cybersecurity experts were urging Hillary Clinton’s campaign to contest the results there, citing suspicious results.

Since that New York Magazine story on Tuesday, one of the cybersecurity experts clarified that he did not have evidence suggesting that the election had been hacked, while election gurus like the New York Times Upshot’s Nate Cohn and FiveThirtyEight explained why it was unlikely that there was evidence showing a hack.

As of early Friday morning, Stein had raised just over $4.7 million dollars to a newly updated goal of $7.0 million, according to a tracker on her campaign website.
