On Thursday, Democrats pushed for a last ditch effort to change the electoral college outcome and grant Hillary Clinton the Preisdency due to the popular vote.
KDVR.com reported: Though Clinton led the popular vote by about 280,000 on Thursday morning, Trump has won the minimum of 270 electoral votes necessary to be elected president. As of late Wednesday, he had 290 to Clinton’s 228.
According to ConservativeDailyPost:
How their plan works is simple. As you know, each state has a specific number of electoral votes based on the number of congressional districts within its borders. Additionally, a vote is given for each Senator. The total comes out to 538.
Yet, there is nothing in our Constitution to prevent these electors from refusing to support the candidate who won their state. That means even though Trump won, specific electoral voters could outright deny him the presidency.
Democrats are pushing the law into practice by spreading a provisional petition. As of this afternoon, the petition has 175,000 signatures, making it an official public position.
While some states could try to “ban” electoral voters from switching to Hillary, there’s no way it could be enforced—each electoral voter has the ultimate say.
It’s a low move by the Democrats, and it could actually work.
Red State Watcher reported that throughout history, more than 99% of electors have pledged to support American voters. But if the election cycle was indicative of anything to come, the Democrats are sure to actually push this.
Clinton already has the control of large donors like Soros, who are currently funding anti-Trump protests all around the country.(h/t:conservativedailypost)
