User ID: 73382031 Thailand 11/10/2016 08:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm all for Trump, but this seems way too easy. What law says no electoral vote if there's a concession? . It's called giving up, quitting in other words. So electors won't follow the law (do their job) and vote? They will. And if they don't like Trump, or they're influenced somehow??? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 45637853 United States 11/10/2016 09:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Was looking at this too... VA electoral voting based on popular is 'customary' not a law like the other 25 states. There's nearly 250 electoral votes that can still go either way, possibly giving Clinton the win. We won't know til January 6th or so. My questions are- did hillary actually say she concedes in her speech? I can't stand to listen to her so I haven't listened... But if she did not officially concede there's still a chance to flip. Also, since I gathered this info from archives.gov, I consider it the actual way it works. Why would the Clinton biased media start calling for her to concede? It just doesn't make sense that they would be encouraging her to concede when there's still potential for faithless electors to change.m |

Deplorable Debauchery
User ID: 71870886 United States 11/10/2016 10:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is a Texas elector that is considering giving his vote to Clinton because he hates Trump. Chris Suprun. Wonder how many others there are that are going to be assholes. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |

Quoting: Deplorable Debauchery Chris Suprun. Wonder how many others there are that are going to be assholes. Trump/Pence 305 electoral votes.It's done deal. Oh I'm not too concerned, I just thought I'd mention it. I don't think the electors are going to swing the election in favor of Clinton. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less.
