These Clinton electors are looking to cast their votes for a third candidate (a Republican), while at the same time pushing enough Trump electors to do the same thing so that Trump doesn’t get 270 electoral votes. If he doesn’t get 270, then the election goes to the House under the terms of the 12th Amendment.

Isn't 270 a fiction? The real number is the most number of votes? Meaning that Hillary wins outright if enough idiots flip from Trump to Kasich or whoever? (No House vote.)
