    Cool

    Anyone know what happens when a state opts out of sending an electoral delegation?

    Because West Virginia obviously skipped that day in school.

    They don’t get counted. That’s it. If WV refuses to recognize the election they will lose their electrical votes. So if Trump loses, (we all know they won’t have an issue with Trump winning) then he gets to lose even harder. That’s it. That’s the effect.

      Their electrical votes, you say?

      But I guess they could send in false electors like Frump wanted last time.

        Yeah, I’m sure someone will let them know and then it’ll change. But it is pretty funny to watch the party that supposedly loves the Constitution the mostest get it so wrong, so often. Also infuriating but I’m choosing laughter today.
