Arizona's presidential electors being harassed, urged not to cast vote for Trump
2016-11-19
[FOXNEWS] Arizona’s presidential electors are reportedly being hit by a flood of emails and phone calls demanding they defy the voters in their state and choose Hillary Clinton
... former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, sometimes described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as a crook...
instead of President-elect Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
-- as part of a last-gasp bid to overturn the election.

Since Trump’s surprise victory on Nov. 8, those opposed to his election have engaged in a number of strategies to attempt to nix the election or declare it invalid. Protests, many of them violent, have erupted in cities such as Portland and New York City.

Others, noting that Clinton appears to be on track to win the popular vote but still lose the election, have called for the scrapping of the Electoral College altogether. Retiring Sen. Barbara Call me Senator! Boxer

#3  Whiney cry babies. If you can't win by the rules, change the rules? The rules say you need a Constitutional amendment to change the rules, so get over it--it's not going to happen.

#2  The media tries to avert their eyes from the fact that the popular vote / electoral vote thing has happened FIVE TIMES in presidential election history. It's not the horrendous anomaly they want everyone to believe...
