In all 50 states and the District of Columbia, members of the Electoral College will meet as prescribed by the US Constitution on Monday to cast their votes-one each for President and Vice President of the United States.
C-SPAN will air six of these meetings live from Ohio, California, Pennslyvania, Massachusetts and Texas.
(With Jesse Jackson, Conyers and the liberal moonbat protesters airing their 'forum' from the capital of Ohio at 4:30 PM, ET)
WATCH: Monday 12PM-6PM Eastern Time
OH Gov. Taft-'an election for the ages..' applause from the Senate chamber
Awwwhhh the poor DUmmies. How will they ever cope with reality.
They're -just now- starting to feel that? Those folks are drooling idiots.
2 are absent..
Since the electors are selected by thae party, why would they select an elector who hates the party's candidate?
As bubba & michigander pointed out, some states have laws requiring the elector to vote w/ the state. Those laws, however, are of questionable constitutionality - the Constitution (and Framers) didn't anticipate political parties the way we have them now, and fully expected the electors to use their best judgment to elect the Prez & VP.
TWO electors are not present.
They much now nominate and approve two more electors.
Nominated and seconded...the vote and the AYES have it...
Mr Bowman is now elected Temporary Chair.
Wonder where those two electors were?
Nominating a new elector for someone who couln't make it for health reasons?
Of course they'll throw it out. There's a VRWC led by the omnipotent Karl Rove. The DUer's are powerless against the Rovester, yet they shall fight the good fight ;)
AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
They don't. The occasional "unfaithful" elector slips through but for the most part they are loyal servants of the party that named them to the slate and they take their duty seriously.
Nominations closed. Appointments approved
Yeah, the first week it was kinda sad but funny. Then just funny. Now I don't think it's funny anymore. It's like J.J. and Arnbeck are dangling a porkchop above rabid dogs just to get them in a frenzy so that they will go out and kill. It's just creepy now.
"Since the electors are selected by thae party, "
That may explain it. Perhaps they are an elector for the Constitution party? I just heard them say they were an elector.
Exit Poll LOL!!!!
Ballots being distributed..Ken Blackwell jokes 'CSPAN is going to do an exit poll' big laughs from the Senate Chamber
It's not just the loons over at the DU .. you should read the comments from the Daily Kos .. they are off the deep end also
The way the left is handling this gives a whole new meaning to kool aide drinkers
Sec Blackwell just made a funny .. He says he hears c-span will be doing an exit poll
That got a big reaction! Clerk says she has 18 votes..
BTTT What's hap'nin now?
