This means the Faithless Elector Campaign now has to produce 38 turncoats.

Fat chance!

True enough. Remember the Soros-funded “Secretary of State Project”, which had the avowed goal of putting ‘Rats in charge of the election apparatus in all 50 states. That is how the clown Franken cheated his way into the Senate in MN the first time around. The ‘Rat-controlled election offices in WA state cheated Dino Rossi out of the governorship by 128 votes (!) a few cycles ago. In both cases, boxes and boxes of “lost” ballots” were miraculously “found”, almost all of them cast for the ‘Rat candidate (well golleeeee, imagine that, what an amazing coinky-dink), enough to give the a “win” (and a mandate, of course).

Couldn't agree more. Building up the GOP at the state level over the last few cycles was critical to Trump's (narrow) victory in this presidential election! Aside fom Michigan, Trump was able to win other upper Midwestern states - Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana - with GOP state adminisrations. (despite Kasich's lack of help.)

Looks like they are going to have to flip another twenty electors. Good luck with that.

We pounded the hell out of Hillary and Kaine in OH, an 8-point win and over 450,000 vote margin. Trump's strategy of holding rally after rally here paid off, and I really didn't think he could do it without TV ads, but he did. Voters were just fed up with Hillary and the 'Rat cesspool in DC.

I have been friends with John Kasich ever since he ran for state Senate and later Congressman and Governor. He brought me into the state GOP (although I have not declared an official party allegiance, I can't see voting any other way, at least for now). And I was terribly disappointed in his behavior regarding Trump. I understand his disappointment at not getting a shot at the Presidency, which was always his dream, but, geez, if the breaks don't go your way, suck it up and support your nominee. How much bigger of a win Trump might have had if the party apparatus here and elsewhere would have backed him more vigorously? When you think about it, Trump's win is even more remarkable, because he had to beat the best the 'Rats threw at him, all the mud the mainstream media threw at him, and the lukewarm or outright hostility of his own party. Truly a win for the outsiders and "the forgotten man".

Only in the big cities. The rest of California that votes safely they would combine to one big county.

Dem bastards “retabulated” in Detroit and Ann Arbor and found some extra votes for Clinton I see, but not nearly enough of them.

NY slimes still not calling Michigan. Fox results page still lists Trump @ 290.

I just watched the video of CBS on election night, Clinton conceded and they put that up on the screen but anchors refused to accept it as confirmed, Trump was giving his victory speech before they acknowledged he officially won.

300+ EVs = a mandate. “They” don’t want to confirm that that’s exactly what happened.

Yes, those who want the popular vote want NYC, LA plus the other largest cities to determine our Pres. It is basically east and west Coast like that. All states count now, and; they all should.

She and Bill started the purple crap for Soros the next day.
Imagine a person who throws 950k bottles of champagne through a TV 3 times larger then the widest most have seen, then throws crap on walls to include cake etc. What a piece of trash plus she’s the real danger with any nuke code.

The vote fraud in Michigan must have been mammoth for Trump to win by only 10,000 votes.

They miscalculated the number of votes they needed to steal.

This vote counting and recounting is giving the county election types, who are mostly Dem, time plus a chance to do their adjusting. I call this BS. Frankly, I believe we need to go back to age 21. I voted in 68 from Vietnam. We all voted for Wallace (really Curtis Lemay)as he promised us BOMBS.

Yes, recall before the election where vacant buildings held boxes of votes already filled out for Clinton.

“I don’t understand how someone can be active enough within his/her political party to be chosen as an elector, then turn around and vote for the other party’s candidate.”........

Money, lots of it, can change a lot of minds. My guess this is the case. Chances are quite good that “electoral” will NOT be holding that position after December’s vote.

According to the most recent numbers, about 5 million more people voted against Hillary than voted for her.

Still worried. Sounds like some on the left want Hillary to challenge “fraud” in the system and recount all the battlegrounds.
