WATCHED STATION, THIS IS WCCO 4
NEWS.
GOOD AFTERNOON.
I'M KIM JOHNSON.
TODAY, NOT NOVEMBER 8th IS
THE OFFICIAL DAY THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES IS
ELECTED.
THE REAL RAL COLLEGE --
ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTERS ARE
ASSEMBLING IN ST. PAUL.
ELECTIONTORS ARE EXPECTED TO
CAST THEIR VET FOR HILLARY
CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT AND TIM
KAINE FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
SUSAN-ELIZABETH LITTLEFIELD HAS
MORE.
Reporter: A LITTLE BIT
CONFUSING HERE BUT THERE'S A
LAW IN THIS STATE AND HALF THE
STATES IN THE COUNTRY.
BASICALLY WHAT IT SAYS, THE
VOTERS IN THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE, THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO
VOTE FOR TODAY.
WE'RE EXPECTING ALL 10 TO GO TO
THE HILLARY AND KAINE TEAM.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE UPSET AT
THE WAY PEOPLE VOTE, THESE
RALLIERS.
THEY WANT TO CHANGE THE WAY
PEOPLE VOTE IN THE U.S. SOME OF
THE GROUPS ARE NONPARTISAN BUT
THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT HAPPY
WITH THE WAY DONALD TRUMP WAS
ELECTED.
PROTESTERS WERE ON BOTH SIDES
OF THE CAPITAL TODAY TO VOICE
THEIR CONCERNS.
HILLARY CLINTON WON THE POPULAR
VOTE OF COURSE BUT DONALD TRUMP
WON THE ELECTORAL VOTES OR AT
LEAST THEY'VE BEEN PLEDGED TO
HIM.
WE SPOKE TO AN EXPERT WHO
DOESN'T EXPECT TOO MUCH
SURPRISE, AT LEAST LOCALLY.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE UNHAPPY
WITH THE VOTE -- ELECTION
BECAUSE HILLARY GOT THE MOST
VOTES BUT IN MINNESOTA WE'RE
PROBABLY NOT GOING TO SEE
ANYTHING HAPPENING OUTSIDE OF A
CEREMONIAL VOTE THAT WILL GO
VERY QUICKLY.
Reporter: NOW HE SAYS IT'S
VERY RARE THAT PEOPLE MIX UP ON
THE VOTES.
HE SAID THE LAST TIME WE SAW
THAT HAPPEN IS WHEN JOHN KERRY
WAS RUNNING.
HE GOT NINE OUT OF 10 VOTES.
THE 10th VOTE ACTUALLY WENT TO
JOHN EDWARDS.
ANY IDEA HOW LONG IT WILL
TAKE?
