has won the presidency but Hillary Clinton has won the popular vote. Democrats and proponents of absolute democracy are furious that this can happen.
More than 3,000 Clinton supporters have signed a petition urging the Electoral College to dismiss the state-by-state results of the election and instead cast their votes for Clinton.
"For the second time in sixteen years the presidential candidate with the fewer votes won the national election. This is due to the Electoral College," wrote Thomas Reich, the petition's author. "When an anti-democratic candidate wins without national popular support in conjunction with authoritarian tendencies it's incumbent on the Electoral College to decide if said candidate is a threat to democracy. I encourage them to consider this issue seriously before casting their votes for Donald Trump."
While the text of the petition does not explicitly call for the Electoral College to vote Clinton, the headline does: "Tell the Electoral College to cast their votes for Hillary Clinton." It is important to note that MoveOn as an organization is merely serving as a platform for this petition, and the organization itself "has not reviewed" it. Nevertheless, I highly suspect the organization would support it.
Does anyone know if MoveOn is connected to the Clintons in any way? My memory is rather hazy on that one... | Remember we were supposed to "move on" from Bill's impeachment? |
