One thing I have not seen much of while doom scrolling these last couple of days is much talk about "faithless electors." Is this a legitimate worry with the outcome being so tight that the electoral college delegates don't follow? One or two could change the result it appears. Or is this silly to worry about?
Electors are usually selected because they are party faithful. It is considered a reward to the hardcore base. I have been an elector twice to the LP. Electors usually believe in the cause and it is highly unlikely that there would be flips.
