Read how it works, the only other person running for PRESIDENT at the time, was John McCain...Period. Not true. The democratic slate of electors would be able to vote for whomever they wanted. There is NOTHING that stops an elector for changing their vote in the electoral college. That's why they are always the staunchest party loyals that are chosen for it.

Have you checked “Faithless Elector” laws?

This is where I get confused. I live in a state that has 2 electoral votes. My state is fully democratic. Now we have 2 democrat electors and 2 republican electors which gives you 4. If BO won, then those 2 electors get to vote.
Now here's the question - he fraudulently ran - he was and is not eligible to run - right? SO, why would the democratic electors get to vote? Wouldn't all 4 get to vote since he is ineligible? Please answer that!
