IT’S REALLY HAPPENING: Ron Paul wins electoral college…vote!

Well, after three presidential runs (one as a Libertarian in 1988), it’s happening…as they say. Ron Paul achieved his first genuine electoral vote. UPDATE: We can now confirm this is 100% more votes than Jeb Bush.

Leading among the faithless electors this year was Colin Powell, who received 3 votes in Washington. Also receiving 1 vote in Washington was Faith Spotted Eagle, a member of the Sioux Nation who helped block development of the Keystone XL pipeline and the Dakota Access Pipeline.

The remaining two faithless electors were in Texas, where John Kasich received 1 vote, as did libertarian legend Ron Paul. Receiving vice presidential electoral votes were Susan Collins, Elizabeth Warren, and Winona LaDuke.

Perhaps the craziest of it all is that there could have been even more: Bernie Sanders had support to receive one electoral vote each in Minnesota, Colorado, and Maine, but those electors were replaced in the first two cases and forced to re-vote in the latter instance.

Isn’t it remarkable that, despite the media narrative, it was Hillary Clinton who lost more electoral votes than President-elect Donald Trump? Ah, #FakeNews!

A historic number of electors defected, and most were supposed to vote for Hillary Clinton https://t.co/53Xl35ZLG5 pic.twitter.com/ctUxRa38nm
