Hypothetical fake problem. Who had standing to bring the suit?
Three Washington State Electors who were each fined $1,000 for not voting as pledged.
No kidding. That's laughable, the Left talking about what the Founders intended.
You hear this every single election where a Republican wins on election night, and when the ballots are to be cast a month later on the second Wednesday in December, you hear this constantly leading up to it. Maybe this will finally put the kibosh on that.
Now, as Rurudyne pointed out, we have to stop this move to have states give their electoral votes to whoever wins the popular election.
From Wikipedia if you aren't familiar:
"The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, (NPVIC) is an agreement among a group of U.S. states and the District of Columbia to award all their electoral votes to whichever presidential candidate wins the overall popular vote in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The compact is designed to ensure that the candidate who receives the most votes nationwide is elected president, and it would come into effect only when it would guarantee that outcome. As of March 2020, it has been adopted by fifteen states and the District of Columbia, although it is suspended in Colorado. Together, they have 196 electoral votes counting Colorado, which is 36% of the Electoral College and 73% of the 270 votes needed to give the compact legal force."
Personally, I find this highly alarming, and the fact that it would make up 73% of the votes needed to put a candidate over the top, means this need to be put down...hard. As an aside, another note on Wikipedia related to this: "...Electors are typically required to pledge to vote for the winning candidate, but there is an ongoing legal dispute about whether electors are required to vote as they pledged..."
Think about that. They took a pledge with one side of their mouths, and from the other side, say the pledge means nothing and they should be able to vote as they please. Just like that. Well, this has to be stopped. As well as expanded voting, ballot harvesting, ranked voting, and every other Leftist endeavor to tilt the table in their direction, which is their unstated goal.
Electoral College version of Jury Nullification.
once the socialists get mail in only established in every state, they will need this decree. As it is liberals with assets are cashing in and fleeing the cities to places like Montana, Wyoming, Utah Texas and Idaho, wont be long before the Electoral College is moot
