So what's the deal with the "false electors" story on Trump?

submitted by Merlynn to whatever 1.2 yearsMar 29, 2024 01:46:30 ago (+1/-0)     (whatever)

I only just heard about it recently but supposedly it happened just after the election. Did I just miss it or is this something they pulled out of their ass?

They are accusing him of something that is perfectly legal to do. If you think the election was wrong or fraudulent, you make the claim that your electors ought to be the ones casting their vote (electoral college). This was done by the democrats, I believe in Hawaii in the 60's, and it worked.

Well,at least that makes more sense than Trump just sent a bunch of people in to pretend to be electors. But when did they start talking about it?

That I am not sure of. I have known about it through a law channel I watch sometimes for about a year.

The completely legal yet rarely used practice of alternate electors

Well,that's nice to know,I'm just wondering if they only started recently bellyaching about it or did I just miss it somehow?

burning for a wizard is a minor inconvenience. its how to tell if somebody is a wizard.

Yeah,but they ruin my clothes and spell components. And some of them are pretty expensive.

You mean like leaving an illusion of myself here to distract you while I'm off shagging your wife?
