Please remember.....Delegates do NOT have to cast their vote for the candidate with the most popular vote.

Does the old house elect or the new house?

I cannot fathom the amount of constitutional scholars, lawyers, and professors who would descend upon DC if this scenario ever happened. It would be a feeding frenzy.

Only 21 states requires the delegates first vote is for the popular vote candidate. in their state...

What happens if Trump overwhelmingly wins the popular vote and the EC defies their voters and votes Clinton into office????

Delegates have done their piece for this election. They are done. No more voting for them except like us peons — in the general. 1 vote each. A tie goes to the current House of Reps for a vote and final decision. It would not be a tie in the House, guaranteed.

We need an amendment to the Constitution that requires each member of the Electoral Congress to cast their ballot for how each of their Congressional District voted, not state level winner take all.
Senators who are each states member of the Electoral Congress should be required to vote how their state legislature decides during a special legislative session between election day and the the Electoral College Vote.

After all aren’t Senators supposed to represent the interest of each state, and not multinational corporations, who fund their campaigns?

Only then will we see an accurate representation of the the American People, reflected in the office of President.

As a result the massive voter fraud in large urban district will be limited to just their district, and the President will truly represent the will of the People of the United States.
