There is nothing that binds an elector to vote for anyone that he/she does not want to vote for. The writers of the Constitution wanted a way to override the people if they made a stupid choice. There is also nothing in the Constitution that says the people select the president. The people select electors who promise to vote for a certain candidate.

Hope it gets to the Supremes before the election.

The vote was 2 to 1 in a court minority ruling. It will not stand.

Going to the popular vote would then become a preferable alternative. You think members of the Senate act like primped-and-preened royalty? Just wait until you see a couple of electors out there with their votes for sale.
