Thank you. Being a freeper means learning something new every day. I checked out my 1984 dictionary to share the definitions with all (don't much trust the altered realities of online information):

sedition Language or conduct directed against the public order and the safety of the state

treason betrayal or breach of allegiance or obedience toward one's sovereign or government

According to those definitions, I'd think those advocating for electors to not honor their oath are guilty of sedition. Any elector who would not honor his oath would be guilty of treason.

Do I have that right? I'm wondering if we shouldn't try to create more general knowledge that these endeavors are serious crimes. The media certainly isn't going to do that job.
