Potential legal consequences for stepping out of line with their states vote count. so it was a challenge and it was a long shot from the very beginning. and what youve seen so far in the vote totals weve had, very few electors, fewer than a handful, have done anything other than vote according to the way their state did. the ones who did, didnt necessarily vote for hillary clinton. even to deny donald trump two or three electoral college votes hasnt necessarily meant those votes would be transf...

Mr. trump got 307 in the election and he needs 270 to win. so if 37 turn away, there is no official winner and this thing will head to the house of representatives for a decision. but listen to this eelector bound to hillary clinton. democrats are under pressure from some corners as well to vote for a republican other than trump with the goal of sweeping someone else into office. >> i dont know what im going to do monday. i may vote for secretary clinton, or i may vote for a republican that -- t...

But nothing probably to get to the 37 number and then, what ends up happening if somehow donald trump is below 270 electoral votes, it goes to the u.s. house of representatives where republicans have the advantage and so somehow if donald trump is at 268 or 269, youre going to have republicans who end up deciding which is going to be very good news for donald trump, so you boil it all down and i do think this is a fascinating story. its great to learn about whats going on, what our constitution ...

I disagree with julian with that. the democrats would very much like to change it if they could because it would concentrate in the extreme of the two coasts since the election showed by a way of wide margin that hillary clinton did win the popular vote in the state. theyll concentrate in the east and west coast state and win the elections and the rest of the countrys voice and the issues affecting the country is neglecting it. >> i think it is unlikely that while wyoming and kansas, that depend...

Representatives where republicans have a majority and they have a majority of states that have a republican majority themselves and that would decide it. i think that either donald trump crosses 270 which i think he is certain to do or he is below that and becomes president of the united states from the house of representatives. >> thank you so much for joining me. as electors move to certify, the transition is in full swing. one new key appointment, the infantry officer. the trump campaign tout...
