Clinton snubbed by more 'faithless electors' than Trump
The much-hyped rebellion of GOP 'faithless electors' fell flat Monday, when only two Republicans electors voted for someone other than Donald Trump. Far more Democratic electors defected from Hillary Clinton in the end. In Texas, one elector voted for Ohio Gov. John Kasich, while another voted for libertarian Ron Paul. But that was the only disruption on the Republican side but protest votes popped up on the Democratic side in several state capitals. In Minnesota, an elector tried to vote for Bernie Sanders and was replaced for a Clinton voter per state law. Meanwhile in Maine an elector tried to cast a vote for Sanders but was rebuked and voted for Clinton when he was told he could not for someone else. A Colorado elector who tried to back Ohio Gov. John Kasich was replaced, just as in Minnesota. However, in Washington State there was a legitimate rebellion against Clinton, where she received only 8 of the 12 electoral votes. Three electors voted for former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell, while another voted for Native American activist Faith Spotted Eagle. The Washington State incident marked the first time in four decades the state's electors broke from the popular vote. Washington Secretary of State Kim Wyman vowed to work with the state attorney general and charge the four unfaithful electors with a violation of Washington state civil law. Such violations carry a fine up to $1,000. |

Don't miss the cookies and milk break and the group hug. |

Republicans believing Trump is gonna Make America Great for anyone but Trump and his fellow billionaires,,, That's status quo for government. I don't believe a system of government has ever existed that didn't enrich the rulers and their status/wealth mainline at the cost of the ruled. There seems to be 2 options. 1. The rulers/representatives are obvious about it. 2. They offer "hope and change" and "social safety net" programs to try and hide it, increasing the amount taken to offset what they have to spend to placate the masses. The latter tends to be more expensive. never disparage hope,, it has inspired great change throughout history The most and greatest change throughout history has come from someone angry with something sharp or something small and round traveling at high velocity, or disease. I mean the U.S. has been in some kind of war for most of its existence. Not really in order except as it comes to memory from k-12: revolutionary war, all the indian wars, wars with mexico, war with spain, wars in the Philippines (banana war?), barbary/ottoman war, civil war, Korea, world wars, vietnam, cold war. And that doesn't even include things like building military presence in the middle east, or coups in south america to displace presidents, or attempts at empire building in Africa, or kosovo as part of NATO forces, or somalia, or the war on drugs. History is shaped by the angry, and reinterpreted by the hopeful as a means to rationalize it. |
