Before you donate to Green Party candidate Jill Stein‘s effort to demand a recount in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, you may want to read the fine print on her website. So far, she has raised $4.8 million, but take a look at this little clause at the end of donation form:
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.
And interestingly, as more donations started pouring in over the holiday, Stein moved her total fundraising goal to $7 million. She originally had a goal of $2.5 million. She also upped the amount she will need for lawyer’s fees.

She missed the cut off dates for a recount in those three states
FACT: The deadline for a recount in Wisconsin is Friday. Today was a FEDERAL HOLIDAY. Nothing will get done.
FACT: The deadline for a recount in Pennsylvania is Monday. This falls after Thanksgiving and Black Friday.
FACT: The deadline for a recount in Michigan is November 30th.
FACT: Michigan has already done one recount based on the closeness of the race. They're not going to do a third.

Well it looks like there's more to the now famous Jill Stein efforts to get election recounts in those 3 states that narrowly have Trump as the winner.
Apparently there is some kind of disclaimer that says the money might actually go somewhere else rather than be "returned" to the donators if and when the recounts don't happen.
Could it be the Stein/Green Party has been breached by somebody?
We already have seen some wild flops from the Sanders Campaign.
Who is behind this? What are the *real* "goals"?
Jill Stein Can’t ‘Guarantee’ Money Will Go to Recount, Changes $$$ Goal
