CLINTON PRESIDENT HAS MILLIONS
OF SIGNATURES.
THE IDEA IS TO HAVE MEMBERS OF
THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE FOR
CLINTON. POLITICAL REPORTER
MELISSA CAEN SPOKE WITH A TRUMP
ELECTOR AND IS HERE TO TELL US
ABOUT IT. MELISSA?
THIS CHANGE.ORG PETITION HAS
REALLY
CAUGHT FIRE. IT SAYS MEMBERS OF
THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE SHOULD
VOTE FOR
CLINTON BECAUSE SHE WON THE
POPULAR VOTE. AT LAST COUNT, IT
HAS FOUR-POINT-TWO MILLION
SIGNATURES.
I WILL NOT HOLD YOU ALL IN
SUSPENSE: THIS IS NOT GOING TO
HAPPEN. TRUMP
ELECTORS ARE NOT GOING TO DESERT
TRUMP. AND TO EXPLAIN WHY, I
INTERVIEWED ONE. MATT DEL CARLO
IS A CALIFORNIA TRUMP ELECTOR.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
"...[SOT - DEL CARLO]
36:16
So the state party chairs
submits
a list to the Secretary of
State, and so the Secretary of
State
has two lists, one for the
Democrats one for the
Republicans, and whoever wins
the popular vote in the state of
California, that list is then
submitted and those individuals
will then vote on the president
nominee for their state on
December 19."
SO ELECTORS ARE JUST PEOPLE ON A
LIST SUBMITTED BY A POLITICAL
PARTY - THAT WON.
HOW DO YOU GET ON THAT LIST? YOU
VOLUNTEER FOR THE PARTY OR HOLD
A
POSITION OF LEADERSHIP WITHIN
THE PARTY.
" "
[SOT - DEL CARLO]
36:55
I Received a call a month prior
to the election asking if I was
interested to become elector.
There was a process where I
submitted my information - I was
already a known individual being
the chair of the California
Young Republicans - after going
through a brief vetting process,
my name was put on the list.
AND THAT'S WHY A PETITION ASKING
TRUMP ELECTORS TO VOTE FOR
CLINTON IS
SO FAR-FETCHED. ELECTORS ARE
PICKED BY THE PARTIES AND ARE
LOYAL TO THE PARTIES. EVEN A
REPUBLICAN WHO ISN'T A FAN OF
TRUMP IS NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR
HILLARY CLINTON.
I ASKED DEL CARLO, WOULD ANY
ELECTORS THAT HE KNOWS BREAK
RANKS BECAUSE OF A PETITION?
"..."
[SOT - DEL CARLO]
42:17
You want people that obviously
have done really good for the
party, helped out for the
candidate, that will, for lack
of better word do no harm. So,
the list that has been has been
submitted by the state of
California - I don't know all
the people that have been
selected - but the ones I do
know are very good people and I
know they would've voted for
Trump.
THIS IS TRUE FOR ALL FIFTY
STATES. THE ELECTORS ARE CHOSEN
BY THE
WINNING PARTY. AND THAT IS WHY,
WITH
VERY RARE EXCEPTION, THEY VOTE
FOR THEIR CANDIDATE.
TO WIN, CLINTON NEEDS 42
ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES. ITS
JUST NOT LIKELY THAT DOZENS OF
REPUBLICAN PARTY ACTIVISTS ARE
GOING TO SWITCH THIER VOTES.
THANKS MELISSA!
