re: #103 NO SMOCKING GUN!

If you are suggesting they can ignore the vote and select Trump electors, they can’t.

There’s a lot more to it than that. Gore. v. Bush should have taught us that.

First, courts will be involved to discount votes. Then appellate courts. Then supreme courts.

And yes, electors can do what they want. You may claim it is illegal because some elector is from a state where the law says the elector has to vote a certain way, but what happens if the elector chooses to be unfaithful?
