Texas Republican Elector to resign instead of voting for President-elect Donald Trump

A Republican member of the Electoral College from Texas says he’s resigning so he won’t cast one of the state’s 38 electoral votes for Donald Trump.

Art Sisneros previously told The Associated Press that he was wavering on supporting Trump because the Republican “is not biblically qualified for office.”

In a lengthy weekend blog post, Sisneros updated that, saying “the best option I see at this time is to resign my position as an elector.”

That’s good, we can get another appointed. Better than voting for Hillary.

"is not biblically qualified for office."

This guy is making the case for getting rid of the Electoral College better than all of George Soros' millions ever could.

ok there will just be a replacement sent who CAN vote for Texas then

what utter rot, though!
what’s gotten into this delegate other than maybe bribe money from Soros/HilLIARy, or?
Mr Trump hasn’t changed (other than winning the election) since this delegate chose to accept the honor of being an elector

I think the Republican Party of Texas required him to sign an affidavit when he became an elector.

“is not biblically qualified for office.”

Say what?

Would he care to list those "“biblical qualifications" for me?

For some reason my Bible does not include a list of qualifications to be president.

Must be one of those new finagled things.

“is not biblically qualified for office.”

The idiot has no idea what qualifies for office much less what “biblically” means. The idiot ought to go read both the Bible and the Constitution.

How much $$$ is George Soros paying people to make DEATH THREATS against electors slated to vote for Trump?

Arrest George Soros. He is a domestic terrorist.

If this guy ever gets any recognition from the TX Republican party, for anything, and I mean janitor, TX should be ashamed. Lifetime ban.

Sounds like a maroon as is the author of this article. Trump has only 290 electoral votes? I thought Michigan made it 306!
