Not too many intelligent, well-informed people actually thought the Left's attempt to get 37 of Donald Trump's 306 presidential electors to vote for somebody other than Trump on Dec. 19 would work.
It didn't.
"In the end, seven electors voted for a person other than the candidate who won their states -- the largest number of electoral college desertions in a presidential contest in U.S. history, eclipsing a record set in 1808," according to the Los Angeles Times.
Trump received 304 votes in the Electoral College, well over the 270 threshold needed to win. There were only two "faithless" electors from his camp and both came from Texas. In the Lone Star State, electors vote by secret ballot. Christopher Suprun apparently voted for presidential also-ran Ohio Gov. John Kasich, as he vowed in recent days. The other elector voted for former Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) instead of Trump.The Comment section of online publications is the new front in the ongoing Cancel Culture Battle.
