Stein said there are still some litigation costs her campaign must pay, but that any surplus will pay for advocating for changes such as replacing voting machines with hand-marked ballots read by optical scanners, ensuring audits of elections take place and requiring recounts in close races.

She said the group’s advocacy will also include fighting against voter ID laws and interstate voter registration cross-check systems that have been used to purge voter rolls in some states, implementing a voting method that allows voters to rank candidates rather than pick one and replacing the commission that oversees presidential debates with something that would be friendlier to third-party candidates.

The Wisconsin Election Commission said Tuesday the actual cost of the recount stands at $1.8 million, with two counties yet to report final costs (Brown and Kenosha counties’ combined estimate was about $368,000). Altogether that’s about half of what the counties originally estimated.

Stein said it shouldn’t take a “bake sale on steroids” to ensure the integrity of an election.
