The truth about New York when voting in a general election for President of the United States:
Party nominations of candidates for the office of elector of president and vice president shall be made by the state committee.
The electors shall convene at the state capitol upon notice from, and at a place fixed by the secretary of state on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December next following their election. Those of them who shall be assembled at twelve o’clock noon of that day shall immediately at that hour fill, by majority vote, all vacancies in the electoral college occasioned by the death, refusal to serve, or neglect to attend at that hour, of any elector, or any vacancies occasioned by an equal number votes having been given for two or more candidates. The electoral college being thus completed, they shall then choose a president and one or more secretaries from their own body.
Immediately after the organization of the electoral college, the electors shall then and there vote by ballot for president and vice president, but no elector shall vote for more than one person who is a resident of this state. They shall name in separate ballots the persons voted for as president and vice president.
This other vote known as the electoral vote takes place on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December in each of the fifty (50) states. The time of day when the electors gather to conduct this vote may vary from state to state, but the electoral vote happens on the same day in every state, the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December. Another interesting point to mention: this electoral vote is weeks after we the people have already cast a so-called vote.
What happens to these electoral votes? Each state has a certain number of electoral votes associated with their state. There are a total of five-hundred and thirty-eight (538) electoral votes to be exact, and only a total of two-hundred and seventy (270) of these electoral votes are required to determine the person who will become President of the United States.
Knowing the number of electors associated with each of the States, it is mathematically possible to have only eleven (11) states determine who will become the President of the United States.
The following eleven states add up to the two-hundred and seventy (270) electoral votes needed to determine who becomes President of the United States:
California (55 electoral votes)
Texas (38 electoral votes)
New York (29 electoral votes)
Florida (29 electoral votes)
Illinois (20 electoral votes)
Pennsylvania (20 electoral votes)
Ohio (18 electoral votes)
Georgia (16 electoral votes)
Michigan (16 electoral votes)
North Carolina (15 electoral votes)
New Jersey (14 electoral votes)
If these eleven (11) states end up having their electoral votes casted for the same candidate, the remaining thirty-nine (39) states would not matter at all. So… that vote you casted in the general election in November as a citizen… what was the purpose of your vote? The answer: NOTHING (when these eleven states have an electoral outcome as such) !!!
The time is NOW to understand that our country does not have a voting process in place whereby every citizen who wants to cast a vote is able to cast a vote and to then have his or her vote be accurately counted towards choosing the person who will become the next President of the United States.
