Did Mr. Obama legalize dope nationwide while I was asleep?

Well, who chose these potential faithless electors? I know one is in Dallas.

Thanks Ted Cruz. No one would have even broached the subject if not for your BS in the primaries.

If they do, audit every one of their bank accounts or look for recent vehicle purchases paid in full

How many did he name?
Then why should we believe he has ANY secret electors?

If I was in that position, and actually flipped an election to the loser by being a faithless elector. I would expect bad things to come my way. I sure would.

I truly believe the Democrat Party is Evil
To: DesertRhino
That's what I thought. Anyone who flipped and caused the overturning of an election would be hunted for the rest of their lives.
It really could cause CW II.

For any reason they want to flip there are three for Hillary.

I don’t believe they have any except the one flake in Texas.

“Lessig provided no evidence to back up his claim”
It’s evident however, that Lessig has quite an imagination.
To: All
Odds on this nearly zero.
And the guy in Texas can be replaced by a majority vote of the Electors in the room. Probably will be.
There is a note in Texas law saying they can remove him by majority vote if he is found to be ineligible.
Eligibility criteria include “affiliated with the party”. The night before they can remove him from party rolls. Note it in the meeting, vote him out, vote in a replacement waiting outside the room, and no further problem.
To avoid lawsuit, simply return him to the party rolls after the Electors meeting. He will have suffered no damage and everything will have taken place within the law.
