I wish the Court would start imposing frivolous lawsuit sanctions on these nutty suits. Especially on the attorneys filing them.

Uh, sweetheart, the Electoral College is in the Constitution. The real test is whether she gets some liberal loon judge who doesn’t simply throw it out.

The popular vote in Alaska was strongly for trump. So I guess her feelings are far more important than everyone else in Alaska.

“Janice....clinton did not win the legal popular vote.”

And...there is no “popular vote” in presidential elections. It’s a media creation.

Trump won AK fair and square.

Ms. Park is complaining because Hillary Clinton lost she should get to tell her GOP state’s voters her vote matters more than theirs.

Its without merit.

“Can we sue her? Start suing these people right back.”

I’d be in favor of suing them for every cent they have, then passing a law denying them any kind of public assistance. Let their leftist comrades support them, or let them freeze to death.

Yep. And I’m pretty the Constitution is NOT unconstitutional, though I have to admit I’m not a “Constitutional law professor” like obama, and might not fully understand the finer points of such things.

Popular vote is a beauty contest.

It has no constitutional significance and for Ms. Park’s information, she doesn’t have a right to vote for her state’s electors.

If the state legislature wanted to appoint them instead, their call.

I expect her suit to be tossed.

Mr. Obama has never been a professor of anything.

Nonsense ... she voted for the democRAT slate of electors in the State of Alaska. Her vote was counted; the democRAT electors lost. The Republican electors won. And they’ll go vote for Trump ... just like the Constitution specifies.

Her suit should be dismissed with prejudice.

Tell this idiot to chill out. Considering that Anchorage is currently at 15 degrees F, shouldn’t be too difficult.

Janice, you voted, right? Your vote was counted.

Yes, Janice, your vote was counted, as were millions of votes cast by people who are not citizens of the United States, people who voted multiple times, people whose votes were counted multiple times, or people who are ineligible to vote for the simple reason that they are dead.

So, Janice, would you care to explain why my Constitutional rights are not being violated by counting those fraudulent votes along with yours?

I just read a post over at the DUmp regarding an elector responding to an email from the OP. The elector in a nutshell said that it was obvious that hillary lost the election due to her own stupidity since he received 300 of the same exact email from different senders. He went on to say he would do his job and no amount of threats or boo hooing would change his mind.

Only for her. And only when she doesn't get her way. And only when she can find a jackass lawyer who will gladly fleece her to represent his/her fellow jackass in a federal court.

Time for all States to increase the penalties for filing frivolous lawsuits. Including to lawyers who accept them as clients.
