My point though is if she leaves they lose. If she stays, they probably lose big.

“It has been said part of the reason she is running is to assure she stays out of prison.”—Question of escaping punishment through a Presidential pardon becomes neccessity if a change of the guard occurs.

“There are always alternatives.”—Spock...What form of retribution when partisanship negates rule of law???

Dims will cheat just like the Carnahan case. The same SOS had ruled in an earlier case that votes for a libertarian candidate that had died would not be counted. When you die you are no longer a citizen or resident of the state, thus not qualified for office.

If Democrats were capable of shame, they wouldn’t be Democrats.

Maybe so, but the best policy is to keep her on life support until November.

Hillary is going to hang in there as long as possible. For one thing, she knows Trump's going to prosecute her, and that's a biggie.

On second thought, keep her on life support until December 19.

"... short of her dropping dead or into a coma or something while campaigning... "

Don't put it past the Democrats, and Hillary KNOWS IT!

If President Trump should appoint an ad hoc committee with subpoena powers to investigate Obama's credentials and establish proof of ineligibility to hold office, he could make the case for ex post facto impeachment and nullification of all of Obama's actions. Hillary and the rest of the Democrats must take this into consideration.

That's why I say keep her on life support.

Hey! Here's an idea:

Trump offers Hillary a pardon in return for her throwing the election to him and spilling the goods on Obama, Bill, News Media cons, and other top Dems. He could also let her keep the cash in the Clinton Foundation.

Hey, Donald! How about it?

“Just one singe person could bring a successful suit saying, “No, I didn’t vote for the D ‘electors,’ I voted for Cankles.” And he’d have a point.”

As I recall, ballots here (AZ) state that the vote is, in fact, for a slate of electors. Therefore, such a case would be thrown out instantly.

IIRC, I believe that would be the simplest issue to solve. If the President-elect dies before the inauguration, the Vice President elect would be sworn in as VP at 1200 on Inauguration day, then immediately succeed the deceased President elect, and be sworn in as President.

He/She would then nominate a VP and the Senate would have to confirm them in office.

I guess you missed the thousands of successful suits against companies/products that have very clear disclaimers: courts rule as they wish, especially if it is toward “democracy” or “social justice”.

The public nature of this would be unrelenting. No, I don’t care what the “law” says, this would be a “reverse Roberts” especially in a Republican state.

He’s leaving January 20th, 2017. The manner in which he leaves would be his choice.

I believe the DNC KNOWS already that the ballots don’t count! The elecion is a sham as they intend to flasify the results anyway!

Because they don’t want to commit Arkancide?

convince the voters to vote for Hillary not necessarily knowing who would be swapped for her. ..

The other aspect to this is the write-in factor.

More than a few 'Rat voters may write-in their POTUS/VPOTUS candidate, knowing that Canky was at or near room temperature.

Those write-in votes would NOT be tied to 'Rat electors.
