Clinton campaign to take part in state election recounts: lawyer
November 27, 2016, 12:16 am
WASHINGTON: Hillary Clinton's election campaign said Saturday it would join in a recount of votes in the state of Wisconsin although it has not seen any irregularities so far in the White House contest won by Donald Trump.
Marc Erik Elias, an election lawyer for the Democratic candidate, said in a post on Medium.com that the campaign would also participate in recounts in the closely contested states of Michigan and Pennsylvania if they are arranged.
Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, won Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin by just over 100,000 votes. The razor thin victories in those states pushed him above the 270 votes needed for victory in the Electoral College.
Green Party candidate Jill Stein has requested a recount in Wisconsin and has announced her intention to also seek recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania.
"Because we had not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, we had not planned to exercise this option ourselves," said Elias, the Clinton counsel.
"But now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides," he added.
"If Jill Stein follows through as she has promised and pursues recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, we will take the same approach in those states as well," Elias said.
Although experts say there is virtually no chance of overturning the final result, the recounts could reignite debate over the legitimacy of Trump's election, already fueled by Clinton's lead in the popular vote, which now stands at more than two million.
Clinton lost by around 20,000 votes in Wisconsin, 70,000 votes in Pennsylvania and 10,000 votes in Michigan.
Elias noted that Trump's 10,000-vote lead in Michigan "well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount."
"But regardless of the potential to change the outcome in any of the states, we feel it is important, on principle, to ensure our campaign is legally represented in any court proceedings and represented on the ground in order to monitor the recount process itself," Elias said.
Elias said the Clinton campaign had been conducting its own investigation of the election results after receiving "hundreds of messages, emails, and calls urging us to do something, anything, to investigate claims that the election results were hacked and altered in a way to disadvantage Secretary Clinton."
But he said the Clinton campaign had seen no evidence so far the election results had been manipulated in Trump's favor.
"The campaign is grateful to all those who have expended time and effort to investigate various claims of abnormalities and irregularities," Elias said.
"While that effort has not, in our view, resulted in evidence of manipulation of results, now that a recount is underway, we believe we have an obligation to the more than 64 million Americans who cast ballots for Hillary Clinton to participate in ongoing proceedings to ensure that an accurate vote count will be reported."
Stein has cited unspecified "anomalies" as grounds to mount a challenge to the November 8 election results in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
"After a divisive and painful presidential race, reported hacks into voter and party databases and individual email accounts are causing many Americans to wonder if our election results are reliable," Stein said on her website.
"These concerns need to be investigated before the 2016 presidential election is certified," she said. "We deserve elections we can trust."

US ex-President urges Obama to recognize Palestine before Trump takes office
November 29, 2016, 3:40 pm

WASHINGTON: ”Former US President Jimmy Carter asked outgoing President Barack Obama to grant diplomatic recognition to Palestine before Present-elect Donald Trump begins his tenure in January.
In an op-ed published in the New York Times on Monday, Carter said that prospects of a negotiated settlement to the prolonged conflict was in “grave doubt”, and the Obama administration must act immediately to help Palestine achieve full United Nations membership.
“We do not yet know the policy of the next administration toward Israel and Palestine, but we do know the policy of this administration. It has been President Obama’s aim to support a negotiated end to the conflict based on two states, living side by side in peace,” he wrote.
“That prospect is now in grave doubt. I am convinced that the United States can still shape the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict before a change in presidents, but time is very short.”
He said that the Obama administration must take this simple but vital step of granting American diplomatic recognition to the state of Palestine, before its term expires on Jan. 20, when Trump begins his presidency. He said 13 countries have already done that.
It was under President Carter’s administration back in 1978 that Israel’s prime minister, Menachem Begin, and Egypt’s president, Anwar Sadat, signed the Camp David Accords, which was based on the United Nations Security Council Resolution 242, which was passed in the aftermath of the 1967 war.
Camp David accord called for a just and lasting peace in the Middle East and withdrawal of Israel armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict. The agreement was ratified overwhelmingly by the Parliaments of Egypt and Israel.”And those two foundational concepts have been the basis for the policy of the United States government and the international community ever since,” Carter wrote.
However, he warned that 38 years after Camp David, the commitment to peace is in danger of abrogation. “Israel is building more and more settlements, displacing Palestinians and entrenching its occupation of Palestinian lands.”
The former President said that his Carter Center has continued to support a two-state solution by hosting discussions this month with Israeli and Palestinian representatives, searching for an avenue toward peace.
“Based on the positive feedback from those talks, I am certain that United States recognition of a Palestinian state would make it easier for other countries that have not recognized Palestine to do so, and would clear the way for a Security Council resolution on the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” he wrote.
He also urged the Security Council to pass a resolution laying out the parameters for resolving the conflict. “It should reaffirm the illegality of all Israeli settlements beyond the 1967 borders, while leaving open the possibility that the parties could negotiate modifications.”
“The combined weight of United States recognition, United Nations membership and a Security Council resolution solidly grounded in international law would lay the foundation for future diplomacy. These steps would bolster moderate Palestinian leadership, while sending a clear assurance to the Israeli public of the worldwide recognition of Israel and its security.”
“This is the best now, perhaps, the only, means of countering the one-state reality that Israel is imposing on itself and the Palestinian people.”

Where will they go if they are stripped of citizenship? Do they have to live in an airport.

They can live where they were living. They would have to reapply for citizenship and wait several years to get it back. In the meantime, no government aid for example with education or healthcare.
