Color me naive, if you will, but I trust that while such shenanigans can be gotten away with on a local or state level, possibly affecting national politics indirectly, they still cannot be successfully perpetrated on a national level, or simultaneously across a majority of the states.

If there is anyway to prove me wrong, I trust that Bill and Hitlary will do so, this election or next.

LOL. I got a real education in 2000 by following Florida statutory law, FLorida Supreme Court opinions, Federal District Court opinions, and Federal election law. There are plenty of ways the process can deviate from what we are accustomed to. Title 3 of the US Code is a sobering read, as it touches on how to handle "refusal of office" and other remote possibilities.
