Brought to you by “The Party That Respects Election Results,” AKA the sorest fucking losers in recent history, liberals in Arizona have resorted to bullying members of the electoral college to change their vote.
For those of you who don’t know how the electoral college works, read below:
The Electoral College consists of 538 electors. A majority of 270 electoral votes is required to elect the President. Your state’s entitled allotment of electors equals the number of members in its Congressional delegation: one for each member in the House of Representatives plus two for your Senators. (source)
Each of those electors is a regular person who has pledged to cast their vote in accordance with the territory they represent.
Today, per Fox News:
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 instead of President-elect Donald Trump — as part of a last-gasp bid to overturn the election.
Now in Arizona, a state which voted for Trump, activists are trying to overturn that by pushing the state’s members of the Electoral College to vote for someone other than Trump. The 11 members were chosen by the state Republican Party and are scheduled to assemble on Dec. 19 to cast their votes.
The Arizona Republic reports that the electors are not legally required to vote for Trump despite having pledged to support the party nominee. A number of electors told The Republic that they’ve been barraged with thousands of emails, phone calls and letters urging them to break that promise.
“It is total harassment,” Robert Graham, an elector and chairman of the state Republican Party, said. “It started about a week ago. Now? ‘Bam!’ It’s hardcore.”
What the fuck liberals? Let it go. Try again in 4 years.

Seems like, in all your infinite and mendacious wisdom, you have forgotten the pernicious purloining of an actual election, 2000. Woe to the man who neglects history.
Just bending to the will of the American people as reflected in the popular vote. God Bless America! Except the whiny and annoying Red States where incest, meth addiction, alcoholism, and bass fishing tournaments thrive.
Harper, had to approve that comment since you’re still in the fag box.
If you recall, the 2000 election came down to 537 votes as well as huge discrepancies in Broward County – triggering a mandatory recount.
Trader, if you don’t like the electoral college you can pen your representatives a harshly worded letter.
Zero.. fuckin love the electoral college except in 2000 and 2016. Let’s just not forget the facts when we talk about the will of the American people. Trump won the states, HRC the people.
I’m confident that the Trump/Pence/Kushner administration will succeed in fucking things up for all Americans regardless of which state they reside within. Love the AG pick.. he is whiter than Liquid Paper. (You young Trumpies might have to Google that reference)
Carry on and thanks.
NYC is and always will be the home of the whiners
Yes, it is Trump’s home town. Toughest place on Earth..
Trader always has to get the last post lol
Goddammit. HE WON THE FUCKING ELECTION. The same election he was brutalized for saying he might not accept the results of afterwards, which HRC immediately characterized as “horrifying.” Not the popular vote – which the Dems thought he might actually win – but the real election, the only one that counts.
Welcome to America: it’s been this way for a while now. The system is right up there on Wikipedia if anyone needs a primer. The popular vote is completely worthless. Get over it.

They don’t teach that in schools anymore. Better to have the population kept in the dark. They are more compliant that way.
