What can be done to support and reassure Trump electors in the face of this unprecedented attack on the electoral college? Is donating to provide private security a reasonable and legal approach? What else?
Best to remind them to follow the will of the voters of their states and vote accordingly and to ignore outside pressure. If any GOP electors can’t take the pressure and are waivering, they should resign now so the party can appoint a more faithful elector!!
If they are threatened they need to report the threat to law enforcement and also their state party to ensure the prep is brought up on charges!
Some explanation here of exactly how Hillary Clinton ongoing Campaign is harassing Republican Electors in Idaho and other states to change their votes.
Clinton Supporters Harassing Electors To Change Their Votes, Electors Doxed By Clinton Campaign Connected Person
This is, of course, not just happening in Idaho, but all over.
While it is true there is no federal rule requiring people to be ‘faithful electors, some individual states do make being a faithless elector illegal. Thus encouraging people to be faithless electors in those states is encouraging illegal activity and is itself illegal.
We had reported on Anti-Trump/Pro-Clinton forces putting out a petition which basically was encouraging people to call the electors and get them to change their votes. It even offered to pay their fine if they broke the law and went ‘faithless’.
Various lists of electors to call were floated around the internet.
One was put out by the account, @VoteHillary2016. The admin on the account is Steve Rosinski, a former advanceman for Clinton/Gore and a rabid Clinton proponent. Here’s a shot of him with Hillary.
The @VoteHillary2016 account doxed all the electors in a spreadsheet on Twitter (including the ones where it would be illegal) and encouraged people to call the electors, listing their addresses and their contact information.
Thus someone associated with the Hillary Clinton campaign was encouraging breaking the law to overturn the election results and throw the election to Hillary, and doxing electors on Twitter.
Once it was pointed out to @VoteHillary2016 that this was illegal, he deleted his tweet and wiped his Twitter profile so one wouldn’t see the connection to the campaign.
