Obama's "home" state sticks the knife in at the last.
One of Hawaii's four electors voted for Sen. Bernie Sanders for president Monday.
While Hillary Clinton won the state's popular vote in November, one of Hawaii's electors backed the independent Vermont senator, while the other three voted for Clinton, the Associated Press reports.

Feel the Bern, Hillary.
An historic first! 5 rogue electors
(And at least 3 more faithless attempts but they were blocked in Maine-1 and Colorado-2.)

In acts of symbolic protest, three voted instead for former Secretary of State Colin Powell, while one voted for Faith Spotted Eagle, a Native American elder and activist from South Dakota.

The spotted eagle bird vote from WA is the one you missed.
And 1 in Maine and 2 in CO tried and were blocked or replaced.
Truly Clinton had 8 faithless electors.

..... LOL .... With all of the Snowflakers and Hollywood hype being splashed all over the news an internet .... Bet the Liberals NEVER even considered there would be any Blowback from their own strongholds.
.... They simply just don't have the ability to understand the concepts of "Cause and Effect" and "Repercussions for Your Actions."

All this talk by Big Media about Trump having faithless electors and as it turns out, it was Hillary who had a bigger problem.
Reminds me of the recount with Trump's lead increasing.

I was stunned that Hillary spent $1.2 billion on her pathetic campaign. With so much money why wasn’t she 50 points ahead???? Geez a billion dollars doesn’t buy much nowadays ...........
To: Az Joe

A faithful electorate would have given Trump a 1.32 advantage over Clinton. Well, it looks like The Democrat Thug Party and its threats improved Trump’s win with a 1.34 advantage.
Thanks for a better win, Democrat Thug Party!

It’s problematic that electors can vote for anyone their little heart desires. What next, Donald Duck? Captain Kirk?
