Anti-Freedom idiots! They are all just anxious that their taxpayer grants, funding and paychecks are going to dry-up. What fools.

Do these dopes really believe that electors in the 29 states that force electors to support their party's candidate actually cast their electoral votes to avoid criminal prosecution? LMAO.

It's not like we've seen a flood of cases in the other 21 states where electors vote for Ronald McDonald or Jay-Z instead of their own party's candidate.

HarleyLady27,

It has been amazing to see GOD’S Promises come to pass and prayers answered in this election. All honor, strength, power, and glory belong to Him!

I agree with the lawyers who say the electors should not be forced to pick their state’s winning candidate.

I agree with you...with the proviso that those rogue electors be forced to confront the voters and explain their actions, and accept the consequences...

“Brilliant strategy!

You damn fools can’t keep Trump and his supporters out of power, but you can make absolutely certain that we’re all mad as hell when we get there.

This should work out well for all of you.”

Yup, I could not have said it better. :)

Leaders of the effort, mainly Democrats, have plans to challenge laws in the 29 states that force electors to support their party’s candidate.

Washington, DC, also has such a law. But, of course, the democrats have no plans to challenge that law...

That's not how they ran for 'election.'

They ran as slates of electors pledged to a candidate.

If they wished to be elected as super duper voters, they should have campaigned that way.

Hillary? Fitness for office?

There is a law on the books that says anyone who has destroyed government document cannot hold public office. She would be disqualified by that alone.

I have a low-tech way to stop helicopters. Literally. Saving the idea for when it’s needed. Stay tuned.

“The Apache gunships won’t have any problem chewing you up with their M230 regardless of caliber you’re firing. Especially since you won’t even see them. “

The .280 wouldn’t be for Apache gunships but for their pilots, mechanics, fuel trucks, etc.

“Keep the electoral system, but call it “points” and not “votes”. Whoever hits 270 points on election day wins.”

I say propose whoever wins the most counties in the state gets the electoral votes. Congress can go with districts, but the senate and the white house are done this way.

This way if there is cheating, it is limited to one county and doesn’t disenfranchise everyone else. If they want to have dead people vote in Cook County, knock yourselves out. It will only impact a single County.

Make this the focus of a Constitutional Convention and when the Democrats STB, say the option is voter ID.

That’s the way the Supreme Court sees it, too.

I realize it will never change. The states aren’t going to vote against their own self interest.

I don’t think the American military would unleash their gunships on American citizens. I think it is more likely that Hillary would be removed by the military if she pulls a stunt like this. Remember how “popular” the Clintons have always been with the Armed Forces.
