I think you’re completely misunderstanding my question. Are the people showing up in states that Biden won claiming to be the GOP electors even the same people who would have been the GOP electors had Trump won their states, or just random yahoos?

I mean, it doesn’t matter, because each of these states certified the Democratic electors by name. I’m just curious.

I don't know if anyone is really paying close enough attention to know that. These things don't matter at all.

Again, because they're not saying anything fraudulent. They are the GOP electors, and they want to come in and vote.

It's like if I walked downtown to the SC state house and said "I'm Something Awful forums user Hazo and I want to vote for the next president." It's true, but it doesn't mean jack poo poo.

lmao America is the exception, not the norm, when it comes to academic titles. In most countries, the degree you get after med school is a Bachelor of Medicine; you get a Bachelor of Law after law school. Other countries also don't force students to get an undergrad degree they will never use (and take on more debt) before they can get into med or law school.

People on thedonald are watching fake newscasts of fake electoral voters making fake votes for Donald Trump in swing states. There's a decent chance you'll only get delusions instead of the meltdowns you seek.

if we're talking about the head of WH security..

quote:

Early in the Donald Trump Presidency, concerns were raised over issuing a White House security clearance to the President's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, because of his pursuit of large loans from Qatari financiers.[4] Carl Kline did eventually issue Kushner a clearance. Bailey later testified before the United States House Committee on Oversight and Reform that he had never felt any pressure from anyone at the White House over deciding on security clearances.[1] Bailey was responsible for suspending security office employee and whistleblower Tricia Newbold after her objections to Kushner getting clearance.[4]

It's pretty boring at the moment, all delusion & no tears. They think Trump just pulled off the win with the alternate electors (anyone asking for sources is ignored), though some are threatening violence over the unconstitutional and illegal blocking of the GOP electors in Michigan.

It's going to be like all those movies and TV shows where the current world splits into two separate dimensions, but instead of mercifully being rid of them in their own dimension we have to endure half the country living in their own fantasy timeline where Trump is king and rules from Maralago.

They are various people, usually well known democrats/republican community members or some former officials and other random stuff. The party that wins the state picks the electors, the electors are chosen as they are certain to vote for that party when asked to. This doesn't always happen, but imagine someone convincing Stacy Abrams to suddenly vote republican, that doesn't happen, so they vote the right way typically.

I'm assuming these crackpots showing up saying they're republican electors are either GOP operatives causing chaos, or insane Qanon people causing chaos, either way they're not allowed to vote today in blue states.
