What are the 4 'other' in Washington??
Clinton - 8 votes
Colin powell - 3
Faith goodfeather - 1
These are the first official faithless electors this year... and it's Democrats not being able to stomach Hillary Clinton

Yes - and Democrats said as much... or are you suggesting they wasted all that money on tv ads just because?
They? Wasn't it one Dem activist that started a petition that went viral online?
That's not the same as a deep-rooted conspiracy that it was made out to be.

With wins in South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee and West Virginia, President-elect Donald Trump has won 44 of the 270 votes he needs to formally win the presidency. Hillary Clinton meanwhile has won Vermont's three votes
So Trump is 44-3 up so far...
The electors that have been causing issues and taking it to court are from Colorado, Washington State and California. Those are states Clinton won so their attempt to vote for someone else hurts Clinton and doesnt affect Trump.
I read in various places that these Clinton faithless electors were trying to make a deal with Trump electors.
The deal was if they would vote for a Republican other than Trump, so would the Trump electors.
The goal was so that Trump would not get 270 and it would go to Congress.
I guess we will know soon how well that plan worked.
ETA: I think the end game goal was hoping Congress would choose Clinton re. the popular vote.

No, they just failed.
Again. Trump 3-0
Failed at what? Do you actually believe there was a conspiracy to take the EC away from Trump?
The MSM and Hollywood celebrities certainly wanted that badly enough. It's all they've talked about since the day after the election.
The biggest names in the MSM are pro-Trump.
And I couldn't care less about what celebrities think.
Death threats, hundreds of thousands of emails to electors
Clinton's campaign manager urging for the CIA to get involved and brief electors.
I don't need to think about conspiracy as it all played out in the open. Massive pressure was put on by Democrats to get electors to not vote for Trump. That is now in the historical record and will forever shame the Democratic party.
It failed. Trump won. Again.

The left is trying to claim the threats to electors were made by the right, threatening the electors with death, to keep the vote for Trump.
The left needs to quit politics and go into science fiction writing.

logic says that the threats would more be from the right than left bc these electors would be going agains their people. the left can only really plea.

Looks like more defectors from Hillary than Trump.
Total failure.
And to think you guys already had the conspiracy concocted and were ready to call for civil war if Trump didn't get the votes.
The words of civil wars were coming from the mouths of liberals, not anybody else...
