Unhappy With The Election? There Might Be Hope Yet.

If you are American and unhappy with the election results, read this article and sign this online petition to ask the voters in the electoral college to vote against what their states voted. Hillary won the popular vote, more people voted FOR her to win, yet because of the outdated electoral college system, the candidate with fewer votes won, for the second time in the last five elections. Ask for your voices to be heard.

Many states do not allow the EC to vote against the popular vote in that state - which is how Trump won, he carried more states, including several that were strong Obama supporters in previous elections.  And few EC members will risk the political crisis to become "faithless electors".
