Pressure on members of the electoral college to select someone other than Donald Trump has grown dramatically and noisily in recent weeks, causing some to waver but yielding little evidence that Trump will fall short when electors convene in most state capitals Monday to cast their votes.
Carole Joyce of Arizona expected her role as a GOP elector to be pretty simple: She would meet the others in Phoenix and carry out a vote for Trump, who won the most votes in her state and whom she personally supported.
But then came the mail and the emails and the phone calls first hundreds, then thousands of voters worrying that Trumps impulsive nature would lead the country into another war.

Delicate snowflakes are still grieving.
Its never over with them.
Sore loser Hillary is set to lose for the third time.
Schadenfreude!
According to MAGAtrump5 on Twitter, who thus far I’ve found informative and reliable, the electors may not meet at the state capitols but elsewheres for safety reasons.
Who gives a sh*t. F*** ‘em.
The are going nowhere.
F them one and all.
At least they're no longer arrogant. I remember the pro-Hillary videos which showed the snottiest multiethnic mix putting down Trump.
So Clintons and Obama are involved in Voter Suppression
During the campaign, Hillary said that she would use military force against Russia. The Democrats right now are desperately trying to provoke Russia--or gin up an excuse to attack--with this fake news about Russia somehow hacking the election. I'm beginning to think that they want to get that war started before the inauguration--believing that Trump will continue a war as long as they can get it started. Then they can blame Trump for being a warmonger.
Why anyone believes the Democrat party is the party of doves is beyond me. The mess in the middle east is hardly the work of people who love peace. And people who want world peace do not sell nuclear technology to lunatic crackpots like Iran and North Korea.
The Democrats want war. Trump doesn't seem likely to pursue war. So they want to force the issue.
Jan 20 cannot come soon enough. It's way past time to drain the swamp.
[Another wave of crying coming up.] How right you are. We already have a twofer...election and recount. With the electoral college on Mon. it will be a threefer. Probably the first time in our history. While the Libs will be whining, we will be wining and dining.
Not only did they lose, but after Monday they will have lost a record three times..They whine, we wine and dine.
This much adversity to Trump just doesn’t add up....who is really pushing this election unrest....Trump is a good man and an excellent pick for the GOP and all...he is not PC nor is he beholden to any lobbyists...and he is far from being a Socialist, that may be part of the answer...Trump loves his country and believes in our Constitution and will not be lying when he takes the oath of office like so many politicians before him.
Gonna be a high of 15 degrees Monday in Indy.
Won’t be much shennanigans going on in a bunch of the Midwest Capitals
I know that if I was a Republican elector, all this last minute badgering and attempts at intimidation would only stiffen my resolve.
Sedition and an act of civil war.
A question for the Trump Haters:
Why is your vote worth more than mine?
Hey FU this time I hope we have what it takes to bury you
This Video of Celebs Urging Electoral College to Change Their Votes is So Bad Its Retroactively Why Trump Won
