BREAKING : Judge Rejects Colorado Elector Suit Seeking to Block Donald Trump’s Presidency

Butt-hurt liberals are getting election smackdown’s all over the place today.

The Pennsylvania recount was shut down by a federal judge.

Wisconsin recount is over and Trump won AGAIN.

And now, in Colorado, the elector suit seeking to block Trump’s victory was rejected.

From The Denver Post:

A federal judge on Monday rejected an attempt by two Colorado electors to unbind their votes in the Electoral College, saying the effort designed to impede Donald Trump’s path to the White House is “a political stunt.”

U.S. District Judge Wiley Daniel denied a request for a preliminary injunction to nullify a state law that requires presidential electors to vote for the winner of the state’s popular vote. To do otherwise, Daniel said in his ruling from the bench, “would undermine the electoral process.”

The president-elect and the Trump campaign intervened in the lawsuit to “defend the integrity of the electoral process” and applauded the ruling. “Your vote should count when you vote for president,” said Chris Murray, a Denver attorney representing Trump and the campaign.

Two Democratic electors who pledged to support Democrat Hillary Clinton — the winner of Colorado’s nine electoral votes — argued the law is unconstitutional. Polly Paca and Robert Nemanich wanted to break their vow as part of a far-fetched effort to trade their votes for a third-party candidate and keep Trump from receiving his 306 electoral votes. Clinton won 232.

The “Hamilton Electors” movement is trying to convince Republican electors supporting Trump to defect — and force the question to the U.S. House of Representatives.

Even with the setback, an attorney for the electors said they remain undeterred and plan to vote for a candidate other than Clinton when the state’s Electoral College members meet at noon Monday. A third Democratic elector in Colorado, Micheal Baca, who is helping lead the broader effort, said after the court decision that he would do the same.

The electors are deciding to “put their country above their party at this critical moment in history,” he said outside the federal courthouse in Denver.

Micheal Baca is one of 10 electors across the nation who requested on Monday a national intelligence briefing on Trump’s ties to Russia before the Electoral College meets.

Secretary of State Wayne Williams said he will replace electors who shift their allegiances and suggested they may face criminal charges. As public officers, the electors could face a misdemeanor criminal charge for failing to meet their public duty, which carries the potential for a  $1,000 fine and up to one year in jail.
