Donald Trump started racking up electoral votes Monday even as anti-Trump protesters across the country tried to persuade the Electoral College to prevent him from winning the White House.
Trump didn't lose any electors with votes counted in 10 states that he won Nov. 8: Georgia, Kentucky, Nebraska, North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, Arkansas, South Carolina, Mississippi and Oklahoma.
As of 2:40 p.m. ET: Trump had 215 electoral votes.

The rest of this story talks about protests happening during the voting. I'm so tired of these sore losers. Whatever will they do when Trump lowers taxes, brings back manufacturing jobs, and secures the border. I mean...how can any of them cope with the dark days that area ahead? /sarcasm

They measure happiness by how many babies are aborted, how many illegal aliens are on the government dole, and how many people are on food stamps.

I confess that I’m following this today. But the reason is the same one that causes us to rubber neck at car wrecks. I want to watch the left meltdown mayhem. This is the election that keeps on giving.
Best. Election. EVER!

Maine elector who promised to be faithless and vote for Sanders instead of Clinton voted for Clinton after all.
Clinton voters: even faithless at faithlessness.

Yes, I've
learned to see the left as childish instead of powerful. They've lost and yet people act as though they have power or can overturn the election because they don't like the results. Today is the day!

They have not figured out that voting trumps protesting.
Protesting is sooooo 20th century.

I notice that Texas has not responded yet. I wonder if a certain elector is getting, um, persuaded by the other electors. If so, this could take a while if they all get to take a stab at it.
I mean swing. Take a SWING at him. I mean, IT. Take a swing at IT.
I mean, attempt to verbally persuade.

That’s actually really funny! Thanks for posting!

I can hear the wailing and rending of garments now as the shedding of liberal tears necessitates flash flood warnings.
Sweet. I held a vote in my head about being a gracious winner. I lost.
After the despicable crap these people have pulled before and after the election, I will never again cut a liberal any slack on anything.
Compromise with a liberal means you let them sodomize you and they let you bring your own lube.

He didn’t lose any votes from the states he won? Is it possible to lose votes from the states he lost?
