Electoral College Member Votes For Faith Spotted Eagle (2nd woman to get a pres. electoral vote)
The Good ^ | 12-19-16

Posted on 12/19/2016 9:39:30 PM PST by Az Joe

On Monday, it was Hillary Clinton who was losing a stream of Electoral College votes to surprising individuals, not Donald Trump.

Four Democratic electors in Washington State alone declined to vote for Clinton, who won the state overwhelmingly, and instead threw their votes behind Standing Rock activist Faith Spotted Eagle, former Secretary of State Colin Powell. The Daily Beast reports that Powell, a longtime Republican who supported the Democratic nominee in the last three elections, actually received three of the four rogue votes.

Democrats, dangerous in power, incredibly stupid and retarded when out of power. Let’s keep them to the latter for a good long while...

Don’t forget about Election #5 in HAWAII who cast a vote for BERNIE SANDERS.

5 Democrats deserted Hillary, leaving with fewer electoral votes than she received on Nov 8.

Liberals called for electors to ditch Trump and it backfired on them spectacularly. They stepped in it.

All because they couldn’t accept the election result. Trump’s win was actually wider because of their trying to dump him.

You would think liberals would have learned by now challenging the election cost them more than it won for them.

And they’re smartest people in America.

It was actually funny like hell to watch them contort themselves into pretzels over Trump.

When Obama won twice, conservatives accepted it as a fact of life and moved on.

For liberals, its like Nov 8 has shattered them and they have yet to come to terms with the enormity of their defeat.

Understandable, every one lied to them. But still...

All those threats, intimidation and bullying really swung the election for them.

Those sore losers got exactly what they deserved. Whining doesn’t get you a participation trophy in the Electoral College.

Powell must have been the compromise candidate proposed by the coup plotters.

Wonder what, if anything, he knew. He was certainly close enough to the operation to haven gotten private emails snagged in the Podesta leak.

No one gave Kasich/Powell more than a smattering of votes.

Hamilton Electors had no credible consensus candidate to rally around.

That’s why the effort to derail Trump fizzled.

the whole reason Trump is going to be President in the first place is that a long lineup of “credible” candidates turned out not to be so

Yup.

And the fact 5 Democrats deserted Hillary shows she was a terrible candidate. Liberals couldn’t stand her.

They all wanted to vote for someone else. What they don’t have is a bench for 2020.

The Donald didn't just beat Liberals, he broke them.

The great thing about this is that “Faith Spotted Eagle” is going to be a name brought up in trivia questions for the next 100 years. Wait until the next election and see how many times this name is mentioned during news commentary.

Excellent!

Powell, a Republican???? Yea, right. Cast his vote based on skin color in ‘08 and ‘12, and refused to support the Republican in this last election. He’s another a$$ clown that just need to go away.

Dangerous in power because they are incredibly stupid and retarded.

I can see it on Jeopardy. “In 2016 this US Senator received surprise electoral votes under their phony Native American name.” “Who is Elizabeth Warren”

Expect to see Faith Spotted eagle on the 2020 slate - she’s a Left Wing nut who got a vote when she wasn’t even running - plus she’s more authentic that Warren is - should be a shoo-in.
