Apparently Jill Stein may be pulling a Bernie Sanders, and selling out.After collecting millions of dollars to get a recount of an election she can’t win, Stein may be having a change of pocket book…I mean, heart.


According to Law News (http://lawnewz.com/high-profile/jill-stein-now-cant-guarantee-money-will-go-to-unlikely-recount/),


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 (https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/recount). 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.  (https://web.archive.org/web/20161123205129/https://jillstein.nationbuilder.com/recount) She also upped the amount she will need for lawyer’s fees.
