What if some GOP electors do not vote for Romney?

and say they may not vote for the Romney ticket if Romney wins their state.

The article is in the Washington Post. I could not get the URL to work.

Update:

Actually, It would only matter if Romney had more electoral votes than Obama but not the 271 needed to win the Electoral College. Then the election woul go to the House for President and the Senate for Vice-President. In that case, Romney would win since the House is expected to stay Republican. If the Senate stays Democrat, the VP would probably be Biden. Otherwise Ryan.

I would like to see the Electoral College go to a system other than state winner take all. Let each elector vote for the candidate that won his or her district. That would be more in line with the popular vote.

    A GOP elector would vote for Obama?

  • The GOP doesn't care about anybodies moral issues. Abortion or gay marriage. They don't care about the economy. They are making money from the recession right now. They are the one percenters and they look down on us, all of us, like scum. They are just conning the cons out of their votes.

    To vote for the opposing team would be to throw all their values, hopes, and dreams, out the window. They won't do that. The alternative would be devastating to the country. Don't believe everything you read - - I might go so far as to say, don't believe anything you read.
