So devil in the details question:

An elector is not faithless UNTIL their vote is cast. So does that vote still count? Can a Steat “re-vote” or alter the vote of a faithless elector?

Great question...Apparently some states do cancel votes and even replace the faithless electors.

Electors meet in their states to vote. Then the state later transmits the vote to Congress. It’s not official until Congress says it is. So votes can be changed at the state level, and have been.

But it has to be a law. Can’t be done on the fly.

Martin Armstrong has forecast this election to be the most corrupt in US history, the corruption will be uncovered, how it is dealt with is unanswered.
