Over half the states have a punitive “Faithless Elector Law”. Further, these electors who turn coat will have their names known and be at their peril.

There is a certain correctness that Hillary's last chance are people known as "faithless".

Yea, I was thinking the same...a few may want to ‘make a statement’ but if they affect the outcome, they likely will be looking over their shoulders for a very long time.

I think they vote anonymously. In 2004, some elector got confused and voted for John Edwards for president as well as for vice president. The vote got recorded that way. We know what state the elector came from and which party, but we never found out who made the blunder.

More significantly I would demand copies of the petitions and verify the Citizenship or legal residence status of every signature on every petition. No matter how long it takes.
