I wish Texas would make it law that if any Elector(s) decide to go the Faithless route, first, their vote is disqualified on the spot and they are replaced immediately. It would also be nice if we have maybe a few "backup" Electors waiting on the side line so they could replace that Faithless Elector on the spot as well. Just like they do in court having Alternate Jurors. In addition, mandatory jail time and a steep fine wouldn't hurt my feelings either. I'm just happy and proud of the ones that did their job honorably. Thank you to those Electors.crazy2medic wrote:Should Texas amend it's law on faithless voters for a fine or jail time or just vet them better?Charles L.

I believe the John Kasich vote was Chris Suprun's, because that is who he said he'd vote for back when he got his 15 minutes of fame.Flightmare wrote:Ron Paul and John KasichCharles L.

I also just now heard that Suprun resigned from the Texas GOP after casting his vote.The Annoyed Man wrote:I believe the John Kasich vote was Chris Suprun's, because that is who he said he'd vote for back when he got his 15 minutes of fame.Flightmare wrote:Ron Paul and John KasichCharles L.

There will probably be a speaking tour on college campuses to follow, where he'll be a hero, and he can bask in his glory.The Annoyed Man wrote:I also just now heard that Suprun resigned from the Texas GOP after casting his vote.The Annoyed Man wrote:I believe the John Kasich vote was Chris Suprun's, because that is who he said he'd vote for back when he got his 15 minutes of fame.Flightmare wrote:Ron Paul and John KasichCharles L.

Doesn't seem so. Art Sisneros was one of four Texas electors who resigned prior to the vote; he was replaced by Janis Holt. Still seems our Ron Paul voter is a mystery. Not that it matters much right now. But that person should never serve as an elector again. IMHO.Keith B wrote:Sisneros was the vote for Ron Paul.

Democratic operative Suprin resigned from the GOP? Guess he's moving on to his next dishonest endeavor.The Annoyed Man wrote: I also just now heard that Suprun resigned from the Texas GOP after casting his vote.
Good. The only way to enforce it is to make secret ballots unlawful. There's no reason for a secret vote when you are supposed to be representing the will of the voters.Skiprr wrote:Doesn't seem so.

After the vote, Governor Abbott tweeted: "This charade is over. A bill is already filed to make these commitments binding. I look forward to signing it & ending this circus."
He's teaming up with Brian Williams and Hillary Clinton to do a speaking tour so they can address all of the dishonesty in the media these days.bblhd672 wrote:Democratic operative Suprin resigned from the GOP?

I can understand the need for secret balloting in certain, limited circumstances; the state electoral vote should not be one.This may just be the winner of the internet for the day.canvasbck wrote:He's teaming up with Brian Williams and Hillary Clinton to do a speaking tour so they can address all of the dishonesty in the media these days.bblhd672 wrote:Democratic operative Suprun resigned from the GOP?

That way they will have a bonafide 911 responder to help out just in case Hillary's sniper shoots down Brian's chopper.
