Jill Stein campaign claimed Tuesday that the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a federal District Judge’s order and made clear that the presidential recount in Michigan should continue as planned.
It was stated that the ruling dealt a blow to Donald Trump and Republicans in Michigan, who appealed to the court to try to stop Michigan’s recount.
Matthew Brinckerhoff, a lawyer for the Stein campaign, said: “Today, Trump and his GOP allies in Michigan tried everything in the book to stop the recount, and they failed. This recount is continuing in spite of their efforts to suppress the vote.
“We applaud this decision by the Sixth Circuit, and look forward to continuing to fight for the rights of Michiganders to ensure their votes are recounted in a timely and thorough manner.”
Trump’s worries are increasing as votes recount is expected in multiple states to unearth the cases of voter fraud.

After her vote recount petition in Wisconsin, former Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein is exploring similar recounts in multiple states where the U.S. presidential election concluded on November 8.
Earlier it was believed that the Wisconsin recount may not change the outcome of the election in which Republican candidate Donald J. Trump won by defeating her Democrat rival Hillary Clinton.
However, if the recount happens in more states Trump must be a worried President-elect, mainly because Clinton won the popular vote by a whopping margin of nearly 2 million votes.
Besides Wisconsin, the immediate target states where the recount is expected are Pennsylvania and Michigan. Here Trump’s vote lead over Clinton is very small – in Pennsylvania 70,010 votes, in Michigan just 10,704 votes, and in Wisconsin 27,257 votes.
“After a divisive and painful presidential race, in which foreign agents hacked into party databases, private email servers, and voter databases in certain states, many Americans are wondering if our election results are reliable,” said Stein. “That’s why the unexpected results of the election and reported anomalies need to be investigated before the 2016 presidential election is certified.”
If the election results are not changed after the votes recount, the Inauguration Day ceremony will take place on January 20, 2017 when Trump is scheduled to begin his four-year term as President.
