    I think that as of July 6 2020 that question is resolved. I think you are mistaken

    I didn’t make that up.

    ARS 16-212 states: “A presidential electors who knowingly refuses to cast electors electoral college vote as prescribed is no longer eligible to hold the office of president of all the lecture that office is deep in declared vacant by operation of law“. The chairperson of the state committee of the political party represented by that elector shall appoint a person who is otherwise qualified to be the presidential elector. The replacement presidential electors shall cast electors in electoral college vote as prescribed by this section.

    Would you play poker and just fork over the pot without seeing the cards? OK then.

    That why the left wasn't able to steal 2016 with faithless electors like many called for?

    That's an exaggeration. It's perfectly normal for this or any President to temporarily suspend concession while the claims of voter fraud and tabulation errors are being investigated. I know you want your dinner early. But you will just have to wait. Trump will remain President until at least January 20, 2021.

    This isn't true.

    Hillary, Romney and Kerry had conceded quickly.

    No President has undermined the credibility of the democratic system as Trump did.

    He even claimed that he couldn't lose unless the election was rigged.

    This is the rhetoric of a fascist.

    Apart from a bunch of pro-Trump fans of conspiracy theories, we all know how it will end: Joe Biden will be sworn in on January 20th.

    It's a FACT - the Left's propaganda bullhorns don't decide the elections in our country.

    Here's the EC map that is currently posted at RealClearPolitics:

    Anti-democratic fascists on the Left have spent the last 4 years trying to steal what they couldn't earn at the polls in 2016 and they won't be given the freedom to do so in 2020.

    Cry us a river. We don't care.

    None of that addresses what I posted. I don't care what Trump claims; I want to know that the sex offender won fairly. Why is that bad?

    Trump won't allow any normal transition procedures to move forward, so Biden can't get his security clearances started.

    Trump has said he will immediately fire any of his staff that are looking for a job to go to in January.



    Talk about sore losers.

    jeezus. You guys need to pick a lane.
    The EC vote according to your and spooky's logic is 0-0 since no state has certified it's results yet. make up your mind about what counts and what doesn't.

    wrong.

    Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, ALL throw out the votes of a faithless elector.

    and if you think all 26 Democrat Electors in PA are gonna flip for Trump, you're gonna have a very bad 2021.

    :(

    according to Fox News, Biden has 290 Elector votes. With Georgia it goes to 306.

    meanwhile Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan all throw out the votes of Faithless Electors.

    its over.

    Wrong again. There were no sufficient allegations of widespread irregularities in close races and untested mail in voting with those you mention. Your theatrics do not reflect on Trump, but upon you. The courts minus the media will determine the outcome because the left has abandoned all rights to honor and public trust.

    They never have and they aren't required to, you are hoping they do. Never in our history has a faithless elector vote been tossed.

    Jeezus - What a train wreck of a straw man. :roll:

    I don't know what "logic" you're operating on, but I made my argument crystal clear - the Left's propaganda bullhorns don't decide our elections. A winner will be declared after the lawsuits and recounts are resolved - not after the Left's unilateral declarations of victory. Nowhere did I say the EC count is or should be 0-0 right now, and RCP's electoral map isn't showing 0-0, either. It's showing 259-214, which makes Biden short of the number of EC votes needed to win the election.

    The electors haven't voted yet so it is zero zero. It's really not a hard thing to grasp. They vote on Dec 14 this year then the governors have until the 23 to certify it and send it to congress. All we have done so far is vote for electors, thats it. If Biden dies tonight it goes to congress who will pick Trump or some other qualified candidate and no, Harris is not qualified as she dropped out.

    States are allowed to control their electors and disqualify their votes if they vote against the Will of the People. Many states have such laws, including Nevada and Arizona and Wisconsin and Michigan.

    but seriously, you really think all 36 DEMOCRAT Electors in PA are gonna flip for Trump???

    why the **** would they do that?

    They are allowed to throw them out or just punish the elector they are not required to do so under any state law. If a state does make that Law then the Court has said it must be followed. As I said, no state law requires a vote to be tossed and over 90 times faithless elector votes were counted. There has never been one that has been tossed even in 2016. What states would do is unknown at this point.
