Congressman Begs Electoral College Voters To Block Trump

Quote
A Democratic lawmaker is desperately lobbying the Electoral College to shun Donald Trump, and vote for Hillary Clinton — even though he conceded Monday that the Republican won the election "fair and square."

The plea from Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) comes a week before the Dec. 19 vote, which is expected to affirm the results of the Nov. 8 election, in which Trump beat Clinton with 306 Electoral College votes.

"We're 5 wks from Inauguration & the President Elect is completely unhinged. The electoral college must do what it was designed for," Himes wrote Sunday night on Twitter in response to Trump's gripe that NBC "Nightly News" is "biased, inaccurate and bad, point after point."

QuoteClinton campaign backs call for electors to get Trump-Russia intel briefing

Just over a month after he called claims of a "rigged" election "delusional," Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign chairman on Monday backed calls from a group of renegade electors to receive an intelligence briefing on alleged political interference by Russia – days before the Electoral College is set to vote.http://www.foxnews.com/politics.html

Notice this was within Hours of the federal court shutting down Jill's recount effort in PA! They have been targeting these Electors all month. The Recount effort was not to flip a state but to run the state past the 13Th so their electors would not count! Now they are desperate and directly targeting the Electoral collage to overturn this election! Sore Losers would disenfranchise voters from 3 states to get their way! 
God! this Election season will never end!!

Well, if conservatives would just quit being so obstinate and divisive and racist and otherwise un-progressive; submit to our political masters like all good little citizens should, we would never have to worry about an election cycle again.

Nancy Pelosi's Daughter, An Elector, Calls For Hijacking Presidential Election

QuoteRemember when the Electoral College was evil and needed to be abolished. Ten electors, including Nancy Pelosi's daughter, have a great new plan. And it doesn't take much reading between the lines.

Ten members of the Electoral College, including Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi's daughter Christine and a former member of Congress, are demanding a briefing from U.S. intelligence officials on any ongoing investigations into Donald Trump's ties to Russia.

In a letter to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, the electors — nine Democrats and one Republican — argue that they require the information ahead of Dec. 19, when the Electoral College is set to meet and select the next president.

Why exactly do the Electors require information that has nothing to do with their current function, which is representative, rather than deliberative? Because Pelosi argues they are a deliberative body.

Seriously, who do the democrats have?
Well, since we now know hillary did not lose, it was those bad bad russians who gave Trump the election, why not hillary in 2020!!!! All she has to do is prevent the hacking ( I mean the computer hacking not her coughing spells, although she does sound like one of our cats hacking up a hair ball) What do the democrates have to lose??? Beside another election and more senate seats, house seats, state congress seats, ect. The plus side of this is the dems seem to be able to show their true colors when they lose and not so much when they win. They have been acting like the hypocrites we all know they were but now everyone else can see that also. A win win for all. I mean a lose win for all or something along those lines.  Dont worry about her age or even if (God forbid) she should croak, I figured since most of her votes came from dead people it should not matter to them if she's 90 or six under.


Sorry about this post, been splinting wood today and must have suffered some sort of brain damage.

Well why not Hillary again? They have 4 years to figure out their cyber security and after all "All" the pundits know where she went wrong. Hillary should start her campaign right now!! Why Wait? Obviously 2 years wasn't enough time for her to pull it together. she should start running right now! :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn:

Hillary may not be alive in four years....

of  course she might win anyhow if the Clinton foundation can bribe Putin with some more uranium to hack the election machines.

Electoral College Vote Seals Trump Victory

Quote
The Electoral College formalized Donald Trump's election victory on Monday despite protests around the country to encourage GOP electors to abandon the Republican.

The president-elect easily racked up the 270 electoral votes needed to send him to the White House. Interest in the normally mundane voting process spiked this year as opposition to Trump continues to fester, fueled by Clinton's success in capturing over 2.6 million more votes than her Republican opponent.

Hillary 'The Most Deserted Candidate' By Electors In History

Quote
The Electoral College voted today, bringing the weirdest election in generations to a suitably strange end. The final tally: 304 votes for Donald Trump, 227 for Hillary Clinton, three for Colin Powell, one for Ron Paul, one for Bernie Sanders, one for John Kasich, and one for anti-DAPL activist Faith Spotted Eagle. Trump was "supposed" to get 306, but two Republican electors in Texas broke with the pack, one voting for Kasich and one for Paul. Clinton was "supposed" to get 232, but four Democrats in Washington state and one in Hawaii decided to go rogue too. (The Sanders voter was the Hawaiian.)

The last time this many people showed up in the Electoral College results was 1796, and that was back when presidential and vice-presidential candidates were selected from the same vote.

Clinton would have had an even lower total if three states hadn't reeled in their rebels. A Democratic elector in Maine initially voted for Sanders, but his ballot was ruled improper so he changed his choice. An elector in Minnesota tried to back Sanders too, but the authorities replaced him with a pro-Clinton alternate. And a Colorado elector tried to vote for Kasich, but he was bumped by an alternate as well. In Texas, meanwhile, one elector resigned rather than vote for Trump. There too, a substitute was found.
