What silly nonsense, I thought when I read the article's headline. But then I read the article itself. You're right, it could work.

It...might...have worked if the had started the planning and coordination two months ago....
Already the filing deadlines have passed in 14 states (TX, NC, IL, IN, NM, NV, GA, DE, FL, OK, SC MI, WA, MO).
Let say this plan could get off the ground, get organized and start getting enough petition signatures in one month (difficult but probably not absolutely impossible), by August 30th the window will have already closed in another 29 states (AL, KS, ME, MD, NE, NJ, PA, VT, WV, MA, SD, WI, AK, CO, CT, HI, NH, OH, CA, UT, MT, TN, IA, LA, MN, NY, ID, VA, OR, WY).
That leaves only North Dakota (9/5), Arizona (9/9), Kentucky (9/9) Mississippi (9/9) and Rhode Island (9/9). The only states this plan would be viable in would be ND, MI, KY, Rhode Island is a blue state so wouldn't matter and Arizona is so light red such meddling would just split the vote and toss the state to Hillary.
