“How is this even legal?”
It isn’t. It’s a symbolic gesture meant to further raise the ire of liberal voters. Funny thing is, Republicans should do the same thing with the 83% of the counties they won in 2016. Just have the county heads say they will give their portion of the electoral vote to whoever wins the county.
Look at it this way. If California with their 58 counties has 24 counties that trump won, Trump should get 42% of the electoral vote. Out of 3007 counties, Trump won 88.09% of them. That means that Trump won 407 of the electoral votes.
Run that at the Democrats and see what they do.
