A White House adviser on Monday predicted alternate groups of electors would be chosen in multiple states, and that the process would lead to President Donald Trump winning reelection.
“The only date in the Constitution is January 20. So we have more than enough time to right the wrong of this fraudulent election result and certify Donald Trump as the winner of the election,” Stephen Miller said on “Fox & Friends,” referring to Inauguration Day.
“As we speak today, an alternate slate of electors in the contested states is going to vote, and we’re going to send those results up to Congress,” he added.
Under the Electoral College system, electors are meeting in their respective states on Dec. 14 to cast votes for the next American president.
The votes are then conveyed to Congress, which meets early next year to count them.
Miller was referring to part of an obscure process that some Republicans see unfolding.
Usually, the candidate who gets the most votes in a state gets that state’s electoral votes. But state legislatures are empowered through the Constitution to decide how electors are appointed. Republican-controlled legislatures in key battleground states could choose a slate of electors for Trump even as a group of Democrat electors casts their votes for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
That could lead to two groups from one state descending on Washington to try to convince lawmakers there to count their vote, and not the other group’s, during the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.
The House of Representatives and Senate are guided to review “All the certificates and papers purporting to be certificates of the electoral votes” during the session.
Disputes could fuel the appetite to file objections to the votes from certain states.

Are the alternate electors fully aware of the Dominion voting machine cheating, the thousands of sworn affidavits to cheating, the suppression by the criminal United State Attorney General of the Hunter and Joe Biden Chinese crimes, etc.? Or have they been sequestered from this vital information?
What exactly IS today ?
The day the electors are chosen ?
Need 3 states. It’s like ‘you go first’.
UPDATE: ARIZONA, GEORGIA, & PENNSYLVANIA have all sent COMPLETING SLATES of electors in favor of Trump/Pence. This is in accordance with the US Constitution. Vice-President (President of Senate) has ability to make the final say on which electors to accept.

There are more than three at this point
Not really sure what good this is going to do. Maybe symbolic to keep their voters happy.
And this person is a White House advisor. 🙈
He is most likely smarter than you troll.
What do "completing" slates do?
I thought AZ was going to do the same?
Nevada is supposed to be sending an alternative set.
Saw a tweet from someone saying this is like Cosplay Electoral College..and none of it matters.
I dont think these are being sent as an official legislative move but I dont know for sure. All very confusing.
Indeed!
Eh. So you have the “certified” slate and the “uncertified” slate. Pending further action from either the courts or state legislatures, I don’t see what this gets us.
I hope this is true, but I suspect that even if it is, this will never get out of the box they have put us in.
I’m not saying we shouldn’t do it! We need to try any legal means, even though we keep getting slapped down. But keep it going, no matter what.
The legislatures’ electors should ‘trump’ the election-fraud electors. If it has to go to the SCOTUS to assert that, I sure hope they grow some pairs and do their jobs.
It would be nice if we got a few more states, say WI, MI, NV.
If they just toss all the electors from states with competing slates it goes to the House.
there is no way Pence is going to upset the apple cart with his counting votes unless something major is announced...and maybe not even then.
Excellent! The more the merrier, I always say. :-)
