Hi Red Cloud: I used to believe that to be true but a few years back one or more of the electoral college didn't vote the way their voters said, and their vote was counted the way the electors had voted. I'm old so my memory may be playing tricks on me but that's the way I remember it.Squareshot, the Electoral college doesn't have the power to "over rule" the people. I believe (emphasis on believe rather than know) that the electors are sworn to vote the way the majority voted. I think there has been an occasion when a renegade elector has ignored the majority.
