感恩节前又有大新闻冒出。首先已统计得票数，证实希拉里比川普多了200多万张，创造了历史的记录。其次有电脑和选举专家在密歇根、宾夕法尼亚和威斯康星三个“摇摆州”，发现得票数可能被操纵（1）。比较纸张选票和电脑选票的结果，发现选举有被人为操控的可能。川普以微弱的多数，获得此三州的选举人票，但迄今未能发现系统被骇客入侵的可靠证据。

总统奥巴马和另一候选人希拉里的团队，迄今也未表态，或提出重新审核摇摆州选票的要求。这是一个艰难的时刻。如果重新验票，真的推翻11月8日的宣布结果，有可能会导致更多的争拗和抗争。

民众抗议和要求审核摇摆州选票的电话，打爆了司法部的热线设置。而在Change网站上要求复审的呼吁，在节前迅速达到了近20万人的门槛。

而一些反对者认为，没有证据能证实这些说法，并认为是一些希拉里支持者的输不起的行为和搞事。有人甚至一口咬定，没有骇客入侵的可能，当然也没有证据支持这个说法 （2）。按照选举规则，候选人提出复议，也是常事不值得大惊小怪。

而绿党参选人Jill Stein 迅速地要求在这三个州，重新验票 （3）。她要求的是小额民众捐款，节前达到200万，但被快速冲破。目前目标是700万，以便正式在这三个州展开独立调查。她强调不是为了改变选举结果，而是确保选举的诚信和民主的公正性。

民间动起来了，可这三个人却默不作声。希拉里一直强调俄罗斯骇客入侵民主党的电脑系统，并盗取了大量电邮，证据不可否认。如今嫌疑“证据”又出现了，她和总统却一言不发。令人关心的还是川普的态度和动作。离大选投票日还有几周，川普当时声称几千万非法移民和几百万死人已投了票，可见他早已知道电脑数票时的猫腻。

当选后，川普已从他竞选时的立场大规模的退缩，这是可以理解的。因为这会赢得反对者的妥协，但也会造成原支持者的抱怨。但有一样是不能退缩和妥协的，这就是“让美国变得更伟大”。川普强烈反对选举被操纵，反对媒体的造谣和中伤。这些是真的还是假的，至今还各说各话。面对突如其来选举被操纵的指责和疑问，大众还是希望看到他的态度。确保美国民主的精髓，不被外人操控和破坏，这是“让美国变得更伟大”的第一要素。

川普大慨不会公开反对这样的重新验票，但仅仅如此是不够的。猜想感恩节晚的火鸡宴上，川普一定和家人讨论了此事。怎么办？打电话给克林顿夫妻？可以这么说：我已经公开表态，不查你的电邮门。你也别再要求复查。老哥们了，成吗？

可现在此事的推手是中间的草根力量。

现在还无法预料事态的发展。查票亦不一定能翻盘，但不查或此案烂手烂尾，对川普的影响可能更大。电脑专家们，不会放手正常的验票程序。以后找到的任何证据，都将对川普执政不利。持续发酵的新闻也只会越抹越黑。老话“身正不怕影子歪”，谁愿意去当被假票选出来的总统？川普该站出来了：大声疾呼支持审核摇摆州的选票结果。

更新：本博客发表的第二天， 希拉里阵营已表态参与Jill的点票行动。总统相信目前无证据显示有骇客攻击，尊重选民的选择。川普发飙，认为这是Jill的骗局（scam）。

Because of you, recounts in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania are funded! Next up is Michigan.

Congratulations on meeting the recount costs for Wisconsin and Pennsylvania! Raising money to pay for the first two recounts so quickly is a miraculous feat and a tribute to the power of grassroots organizing.

Now that we have completed funding Wisconsin's recount (where we will file on Friday) and funding Pennsylvania's recount (due Monday), we will focus on raising the needed funds for Michigan's recount (due Wednesday). The breakdown of these costs is described below!

On November 23, the Stein/Baraka Green Party Campaign launched an effort to ensure the integrity of our elections. With your help, we are raising money to demand recounts in these three states where the data suggests a significant need to verify machine-counted vote totals.

In true grassroots fashion, we’re turning to you, the people, and not big-money corporate donors to make this happen.

Your immediate support is crucial - Please donate now and share widely. Details You Need to Know 

In 2004, the Cobb/LaMarche campaign demanded a recount in Ohio. Because of their efforts, an election administrator went to jail. We also exposed the profound problems with DRE machines, which helped launch an election integrity movement. That provoked California to engage in a "top to bottom" review of their voting system, which culminated in the abolition of DRE machines.

The Green Party Platform calls for "publicly-owned, open source voting equipment and deploy it across the nation to ensure high national standards, performance, transparency and accountability; use verifiable paper ballots; and institute mandatory automatic random precinct recounts to ensure a high level of accuracy in election results."

Election integrity experts have independently identified Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin as states where "statistical anomalies" raised concerns. Our effort to recount votes in those states is not intended to help Hillary Clinton.

These recounts are part of an election integrity movement to attempt to shine a light on just how untrustworthy the U.S. election system is.

All money raised goes toward recounts in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. We hope to do recounts in all three states. If we only raise sufficient money for two, we will demand recounts in two states. If we only raise enough money for one, we will demand a recount in one state.

We cannot guarantee a recount will happen in any of these states we are targeting. We can only pledge we will demand recounts in those states.

If we raise more than what's needed, the surplus will also go toward election integrity efforts and to promote voting system reform.
