Canny Political Move

Green Party Presidential candidate Jill Stein has filed for a recount for Wisconsin, and is raising money for similar challenges in Pennsylvania and Michigan.

She is looking to raise something north of $7 million in her efforts, and there is a good chance that she will hit that target.

Of course, Stein and the Green Party do not directly benefit from such a challenge, they will have lost in all three states at the end of any count, but this action grants her, and the Green Party, some much needed publicity, and at the end of the day, she will have a list of those people who donated to the cause.

Those donors are a well that she, and the Green Party, can return to at a later date.

It is a no lose situation for Stein and the Greens.
