I hope they decide that electors are beholden to the people of that state. An elector has the same voting rights as everyone else does. He goes to tje voting booth and casts his personal preference. But as an elector he should cast the will of the people, not his own. Otherwise he could vote twice. It condlicts with voting laws which only allows one vote per person.
That isn't the case at all. Electors are the only ones that determine the election. There is no constitutional 'right to vote'. The individual citizen has no say, merely each elector determined by each state.
Otherwise, he WOULD BE VOTING twice.
No, because he holds a position which involves casting a vote. Same as any other elected official like a Senator or Councilman. Casting this vote is what the elector is for.
Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.The reality is that the constitutional design is that the Electors should choose wisely. That is the reason that " no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.”If that is the wrong approach, it can’t be fixed - no constitutional amendment can now be passed which doesn’t eliminate the Electors altogether.
Can you imagine the mayhem that would result if the electors could vote as they choose. Candidates would only have to campaign to the electors. It would make the selection meaningless except to the very few. This is very, very dangerous.
