GOP elector threatens to vote against Bush Posted on Thursday, September 9, 2004 Has anybody else heard about this? In West Virginia, one of the state's five Republican electors is threatening to vote against President Bush in the Electoral College if the president carries the state's popular vote. Richie Robb, who is the mayor of South Charleston, said he would do so to protest what he believes are misguided policies of the current administration. He said, "I know that among some in my own party, what I'm discussing would be considered treasonous. But I'm not going to cheerlead us down the primrose path when I know we're being led in the wrong direction." Link I'm against a Bush re-election, but I believe this is going too far. This one man can potentially influence the entire election. To me this is further proof the electoral system is broken. Anybody have any thoughts? I know you do.
