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.

There was also one elector in Minnesota who was replaced after they refused to vote for Hillary.

What’s the point in having presidential elections in each state if the electors can subvert the will of the voters when they pick candidate. This isn’t good, the EVs need to be bound to whoever won the state or the democrats will keep trying to overturn elections.
