Continuing years of long-shot efforts to reform the American electoral system, Harvard Law School professor Lawrence Lessig said Tuesday that at least 20 Republican members of the Electoral College may not cast their votes for President-elect Donald Trump.
Since Donald Trumps upset victory in the 2016 presidential election, Lessig, who briefly ran for the Democratic presidential nomination, and his anti-Trump group, "Electors Trust," have been working to offer legal advice to members of the Electoral College who are considering voting for a candidate that did not win the popular vote in their state. The group also promises to inform interested electors of how many others are planning to flip their votes.

"claims to have flipped 20 electoral votes"
The only thing that's flipped is the professor. I suspect this is propaganda to try to encourage others to join a non-existent movement, i.e., "Wow, 20 others have already flipped, so that provides cover for me to flip, too."
We'll see how many really flip, and then we'll judge the integrity of this prof.

The more these ‘professors’ run their sumps, the more true Americans begin questioning the rationality of tenure.

It says MAY not cast. Not that their votes have flipped.
Sounds like at least one vote will flip, but I would be surprised if more than 5 do.

How many of those 20 were the same type of result as saying "Why yes, I will take a copy of the Watchtower" if the Jehovah's Witnesses were to threaten to kill you if you didn't convert.

I’m fairly certain he’s talking about the Democrat electors who have announced that they are not voting for Trump, along with the one mole pretending to be Republican.
