I believe the Electoral College delegates cast their votes to reflect the popular vote, but with this election cycle, nothing would surprise me ; ) The Globalists are no doubt busy at work trying to subvert the will of the People using this EC opportunity.
DJT is an expert at winning, and I trust his winning, strategical judgment. If he doesn’t win, no one else could have won. As he says, and as we as a People are realizing, the system is rigged. Whether it is rigged beyond repair is the million dollar question : )
State laws and perhaps federal law, too, require electors to cast their ballots in the electoral college for the winner of their state’s popular vote. I don’t have a link for that at the moment, and I don’t have the time to look it up. Whether law or not (and I think it is), it IS the expectation.
So, while there are a number of considerations of importance, electoral votes is also on the list. If candidates A&B are equally qualified elsewhere and candidate A has no chance of bringing electoral votes in addition to those expected and candidate B has a good chance to bring unexpected electoral votes, then that would put a Star* in that candidate’s decision matrix column.
At least it would for me.
