 Electors could still pick someone else? |
Link |
I was reading an article online, I think from the New York post, and they had another article saying it was still possible that the electors could decide to vote against those who elected them in December and choose Hillary.
That sounds pretty biased to me, for a paper to run that. But Trump is rather contraversial. It would be more likely if Hillary convinced her voters to just vote for Pence, to convince some of Trumps electors to vote for him. I'm not saying it's likely at all, but it would be more realistic than their scenario.

I HIGHLY doubt that the electors would vote for Hillary in the numbers that would take to win. It is "possible" but less likely than a comet hitting that same day. IF enough electors changed their vote from Trump to another candidate besides Hillary (much more likely for Republican electors), then that would send the vote to the house which in all likelihood would elect Trump. There are 2 obstacles to overcome to elect Hillary, 1. the EC voters, and 2. The House of Representatives Republicans
At this point hoping for Hillary is beyond ignorant, and getting another Republican besides Trump extremely unlikely. |

True. Flipping 39 electors would be tough.

In almost 150 years there have only been a handful of electors who changed their vote, it's not likely that that will change but with this election ...who knows!
Trump is in & America is already 'gooder' for it lol.
