Over Two Million People Have Signed A Petition Asking The Electoral College To Elect Hillary
Townhall ^ | Nov 11, 2016 | Christine Rousselle

Posted on 11/11/2016 9:02:00 PM PST by Cheerio

A Change.org petition asking the Electoral College to elect Hillary Clinton instead of Donald Trump has garnered over 2 million signatures. The petition states that Trump is unfit to serve, and that because Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, she should be president.



We are calling on the Electors to ignore their states' votes and cast their ballots for Secretary Clinton. Why?

Mr. Trump is unfit to serve. His scapegoating of so many Americans, and his impulsivity, bullying, lying, admitted history of sexual assault, and utter lack of experience make him a danger to the Republic.

Secretary Clinton WON THE POPULAR VOTE and should be President.

Hillary won the popular vote. The only reason Trump "won" is because of the Electoral College.

But the Electoral College can actually give the White House to either candidate. So why not use this most undemocratic of our institutions to ensure a democratic result?

SHE WON THE POPULAR VOTE.

There is no reason Trump should be President.

they were tied in runs 27 a piece, but the example is perfect. IF a team scores more runs in seven games, do they win the world series over the team who actually won the majority of the games? Hell no.

Is this like that Brexit poll where they found out a huge chunk of the online votes were from one country outside of Britain?

Yes. Go ahead ***-hats, try to make her President. You will not like what happens next. You may live to regret it, many of you will not.

How many dead voters, illegals, felons, and people voting multiple times did she get? How many rigged machines were found to not register Trump votes?

Then I guess we’ll have to submit twice as many asking them to elect Trump to fix the America that Obama screwed up.

They know exacly where Soros is; where he lives; what his cell phone number is yet they won't do a damn thing about it. Why? We know. They approve and why neither Obama or Hillary will ask the anti-Trump protesters or George Soros to stand down. There are people on the ground watching the anti-Trump protesters being delivered by buses; the same type that delivered the BLM crowd in Dallas awhile back from Chicago. And we know for a fact that Soros was behind BLM per tons of evidence that was gathered months ago. This is such BS...

I've never seen such a culture of lying and deception as the one borne by the Lucifer loving Alinksytes. I remember when liberals fought the government not acted like they were like a dog in heat waiting for a new leg...

“They 60 million who voted for her can sign the petition, and it is not going to change the result.”

Snowflakes have been taught if they hold their breath, or protest, or riot, they’ll get their way.

Reality is going to be such a shock for them.

Great post. I don’t ever want to hear the phrase “Larry Sabato and his Crystal Ball” ever again. The guy’s a FRAUD.

The problem I see with this petition thing....is that the dead voters who did come out for Hillary....are not able to come out to sign the petition. I think this is grossly unfair. We need another petition up....to allow dead voters to petition as much as live voters. /sarcasm off
