Topic: Clinton snubbed by more 'faithless electors' than Trump | |

yes, contrary to popular opinion, that wasn't a democrat republican thing,, people from across the political spectrum supported doing what was possible and legal to prevent a presidency that was not supported by the MAJORITY
many want california and new york to decide the president truth be told she was behind in the popular vote till california overwhelmingly voted for her (what state has the most illegal aliens wonder how many voted illegally) you need an id for almost everything else an id to vote should be enforced many dont want living in california or new york to make the individual any less or more significant only when IDs come without cost people on welfare must have an id and a birth certificate so cost is not a good argument but yes i agree id should be without cost as should anything the govt wants you to give theman id for (car boat and aircraft registration to name a few and licensing such as fishing hunting and driving) these are things for the govt to follow you around so yes they should be free) welfare does not REQUIRE a photo id,,,,actually, and welfare, unlike voting, is not an express citizenship right, you must be found 'eligible' but we do agree if something is required for exercising a right, it should be provided free of cost everyone i have known on govt asst has had to have a photo id and i have known a few but have moved away from them |

yeah,, perhaps because they had one
there are other acceptable forms of proof if they did not though,, ..coming from someone who has both worked in and been a recipient of welfare in the past |

the 'rules' allow for faithless electors and recounts
just like trials allow for appeals so whats the problem with using the 'rules' for ones advantage, its what our President Elect does with bankruptcies and tax laws,,isnt it |

i don't understand how electors can change their vote, if they are voting according to the people in their district...
|
|

in some states they can and in some states they cannot
The function of the College of Electors in choosing the president can be likened to that in the Roman Catholic Church of the College of Cardinals selecting the Pope. The original idea was for the most knowledgeable and informed individuals from each State to select the president based solely on merit and without regard to State of origin or political party. http://uselectionatlas.org/INFORMATION/INFORMATION/electcollege_history.php so, some states give the responsibility to elect by 'merit' and not a requirement to vote by popular vote |
