So, I guess we have to call it the "271 EV freiwal" from now on, at least until someone else steps forward.  Otherwise, I don't see how it might impact the actual result of the election.

This was a terrible idea when Republican electors were threatening to ditch Trump and it's a terrible idea now. More evidence, as if we needed it, that the electoral college needs to be scrapped immediately.

Or we could amend the constitution to bind electors to their state's result.  No need to throw out the baby with the bath water.

At that point, you're eliminating one of the last remaining purposes of the EC.
