Electors decide who will be president. There is nothing in the US Constitution which binds them to vote a certain way even though they are elected on the promise they will vote for the candidate whose slate they compose.
So all of Kerry's electors could decide to vote for The Witch and viola she is president. Parties are not recognized within the Constition nor do the votes of individuals mean anything when all is said and done.
There have been occasions when an elector has exercised his TOTAL FREEDOM in this regard and voted for another candidate than the one pledged to.
