7. Here are the filing fees and deadlines for each state:

Thu Nov 24, 2016, 07:50 AM

Nov 2016

Wisconsin: $1.1 million by Nov 25
Pennsylvania: $0.5 million by Nov 28
Michigan: $0.6 million by Nov 30
Those are filing fees alone. The costs associated with recounts are a function of state law. Attorney's fees are likely to be another $2-3 million, then there are the costs of the statewide recount observers in all three states. The total cost is likely to be $6-7 million.

She said that the 2.5M would be enough to file on all three states, implying pnwmom Nov 2016 #13

I can't recall the timeline on this JonLP24 Nov 2016 #18

But why didn't she have her fund raising goal be her actual goal? pnwmom Nov 2016 #21

Oh for goodness sake! Bavorskoami Nov 2016 #39

Changed drastically. Nt NCTraveler Nov 2016 #37

She also has to PAY LAWYERS. 2.5 million was the filing fees for 3 states. KittyWampus Nov 2016 #46

she steps up to save our country and we complain about the price changing by a couple of million? uncle ray Nov 2016 #20

No, it will be tripling the amount in the end. And people donated thinking pnwmom Nov 2016 #22

It was clear 2.5 was for immediate needs filing costs only. Bavorskoami Nov 2016 #34

Same here! It needs to be done, whatever the cost! ananda Nov 2016 #23

That's not the direction of the question. NCTraveler Nov 2016 #38

So you would rather do nothing than something womanofthehills Nov 2016 #43

On the contrary... indeed I want an audit... FarPoint Nov 2016 #52

Total bait and switch. Initial post said 2.5M was the total inclusive cost of recount in all 3 Statistical Nov 2016 #27

Not true. Bavorskoami Nov 2016 #30

The page was updated after she hit 2.5M goal and the goal changed. Statistical Nov 2016 #32

No, not true. I read exactly what was marybourg Nov 2016 #56

I believe 2.5 was for the FILING fees only Liberty Belle Nov 2016 #51

She was clear from the beginning 2.5M was only to file in the three states Bavorskoami Nov 2016 #28

I suspect the goal here is to put the 46EV's into dispute. roamer65 Nov 2016 #29

How would that help? Republican Congress would pick the Republican candidate. Statistical Nov 2016 #33

Any Republican would be better than a mentally unfit Trump. And they'd pry Bannon out. KittyWampus Nov 2016 #47

Yeah but the Rethugs aren't going to alienate Trumps voters which gave them complete control Statistical Nov 2016 #50

I say - if that's what it takes, so be it eleny Nov 2016 #45

I don't either. I have my opinion on 3rd party candidates but ultimately it's up to Democratic KittyWampus Nov 2016 #48
