Forty members of the Electoral College on Tuesday signed a letter demanding an intelligence briefing on Russian interference in the election ahead of their Dec. 19 vote.
Ten electors originally signed the letter when it was published Monday, and 30 more have since added their names.
The open letter - led by Christine Pelosi, the daughter of House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) - urged Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to give a detailed briefing on President-elect Donald Trump's ties to Russia.
"We further require a briefing on all investigative findings, as these matters directly impact the core factors in our deliberations of whether Mr. Trump is fit to serve as President of the United States," the letter read. The Clinton campaign applauded the effort Monday, saying it had repeatedly warned about Russian interference aimed at swaying the election in Trump's favor.

I’m with you...no need to keep posting articles that have INTENTIONALLY DECEPTIVE headlines (i.e., saying “40 electors” makes it seem to be a threat to Trump...but 39 of them are in Hillary states, so their ‘demand’ means nothing).
Nobody interfered. People were able to freely vote. They were better informed.
Unless they are on Anthony Weiner's email list.
They won't even bring a knife to the gunfight! They will rely on the power of their arguments.
I love this....the Obama/Clinton Democrat scum & vermin only sink themselves more and more with each passing day!!! Folks...Obama, Clinton & company have done the USA and our people a great favor....they have destroyed the Democrat Party!!!
They're almost all gun grabbers, but being the hypocrites they are, I'm sure they all have guns.
Looks encouraging that just that one scoundrel from our side signed it. Only four days to go.
Every liberal is a totalitarian thug.
Personally, I take it as a very good sign all they can get is Democrats (except for one fake-Republican). That means the Electors on our side aren't biting.
Demand? Try the congress first!!
Very amusing that they “REQUIRE” this and that in order to obey the laws of their states. LAW AND ORDER and CONSEQUENCES for your acts will be very welcome back in the US after Jan. 20th! Anarchy is getting boring.
Someone get them a participation ribbon.

I’d rather see them have to watch the old movie, THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING, ten or twelve times. Maybe they will get a glimmer of how stupid they are.
29 Rats one RINO = 30 Rats
There was recent satire article "Police Calm Millennial Protesters By Handing Out Participation Trophies" I'm sure these idiot electors are convinced of their own importance and a mere ribbon won't do, especially when the unwashed rabble in the mob got trophies.
Note - There were enough people who believed the report that Snopes had to weigh in on it. My guess is a bunch of snowflakes were upset - "I walked six whole blocks protesting that evil racist dictator Trump, and I didn't even get my trophy. Do you think they will mail it to me?"
Can’t be bothered to read this garbage but willing to bet 90% if not all of these knucleheads are Clinton electors.
Where is the story link to the 37% more votes than registered voters? That’s interesting!
DITTO: That
So, the Electors will get a briefing from the CIA, but the CIA refuses to brief Congress ?!?!?!?!
I believe 39 of the 40 on this list are from states the witch won.
