How is this even remotely legal?
I thought DemocRats were opposed to interfering with elections.
Why would any “republican” elector be reading the Blob’s FB page in the first place?
I think I know is on the top of my “list” if this election gets stolen.
He’s just tossing out Kook Kibble For Kommies at this point.
I knew liberals were mental cases but thei1r symptoms get worse every year
Isn’t this move by Moore an offer of a bribe?
Giving something of value ($1000) in exchange for a vote (elector changing vote)?
All we need is one state AG willing to press charges...
Fat Boy would not fare well in prison.
I think Moore still owes the local actors from the movie Roger and me.
Hey, fatso, you could have bribed the voters instead, cheapskate.
The biggest loser...
Mr. Moore should apprise himself of the laws of his home state.
Any elector not voting as the popular vote directed shall be deemed as resigned and will be replaced.
Good!
Seems like that’s well beyond ‘free speech’ - offering money for votes.
The Chicago Arkansas way:
Use bribery or threats to achieve your goals.
Doesn’t say much about fine but jail time is not more than 10 years. Multiply that by 538 electors and that is his prison time. But I am fair. I say a month per violation should do.
538 months is 44.8 years. Let’s knock off 2/3 his sentence for good behavior and his sentence is 14+ years. That works for me.
Not just bribery. Most states have laws specifically prohibiting offering or giving any “consideration”, which would include more than a simple payment, and not even to vote in a specific way or on a specific matter.
It’s why bars can’t even advertise that they’ll knock a buck off a pitcher, for example, if you show up with a “I Voted” sticker.
These state laws are a blanket prohibition on encouraging somebody to vote at all, so this would certainly fall afoul of such a law.
hey chubby one, will you pay the fine for the Maine elector that is voting Trump instead of for the baby murdering child rapist clinton?
That’s the best picture of Michael Moore I’ve seen.
