Georgia Republican says he might withhold electoral college vote from Donald Trump
AJC.com ^ | Aug 3 2016 | Jim Galloway

Posted on 08/03/2016 9:26:19 AM PDT by austinaero

Vu will be on the November ballot as an elector – a constitutionally mandated stand-in for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Should Trump take Georgia, Vu will be one of 16 Georgia members of the electoral college who will formally decide the U.S. presidential contest.

Vu has just put out a statement saying that he cannot bring himself to vote for Trump in the November general election. And he might not vote for Trump as a member of the electoral college, either.

Should immediately be replaced. This is not acceptable.

There are inevitably a handful of these electors in every election. Just ignore this twit.

Maybe this sort of thing, and not the usual Democrat bag of tricks, is why Trump thinks the election will be rigged.

The DemocRATS are right. Republicans are a bunch of stupid, knuckledragging Neanderthals. They are ready to give up and collapse the United States just because they don’t like Trump. I didn’t like McCain and Romney but I voted for them in the General Election when they ran for the presidency. These so called “republicans” are ready to turn over the corrupt Supreme Court in order for Clintoon to make it even more corrupt.

That is a lie, it's the same with the delegates that go to the convention, if that State has the votes for that delegate they have to vote for that delegate...

If the State goes Trump, these Electoral votes will go to Trump...this person needs to be replaced if the State he is in goes for Trump/Pence...

He’ll be removed. No American political party can tolerate an elector who will not vote in accordance with the outcome of the election. Parties have to be able to actually deliver their candidate to the office when they win an election. Otherwise they wouldn’t even be political parties.

This is a coup. They’re undermining our electoral process against the people’s will.
