Electors will gather December 19th in state Capitols across the country to choose the next president.
WASHINGTON - A majority of American voters favor delaying the December 19th Electoral College vote until electors can be fully briefed on Russian interference in the election, according to a new poll conducted by YouGov.
The survey, sponsored by the progressive advocacy group Avaaz, found 52 percent of people supportive of stalling the vote, set to take place Monday.
A surprisingly high number of people ― 46 percent ― were also willing to support so-called “faithless electors,” the name given members of the Electoral College who spurn the vote of their home state and vote for a different candidate instead.
Trump opponents have been pressuring electors to break with their state’s voters, and a law firm has even offered pro bono, confidential legal advice to any elector curious about his or her options. Avaaz has collected thousands of signatures on a petition calling for the vote to be delayed.

We can always hope.
Erm... What scandal?
Do you mean the scandal where people such as yourself just REFUSE to accept the results of democracy?
The one where Putin hacked the DNC and publicized their "private" emails - BUT NOT THE RNC. That scandal...
Bring proof that Russia had anything to do with it and then we'll talk.
Funny how Comey couldn't testify that Hil-Liars server was hacked because as he stated, it's very difficult to detect and prove. But all of a sudden, they know Russia hacked her emails and aided in the publication.
