Bruce,

Whoa whoa whoa there pardner. <g> Today's Electors will play an equally important role - they will elect the next President. <g>

Do you know that in many states the electors can (assuming they have enough life insurance <g>) vote for the Presidential candidate to which they are NOT pledged?

That could be so in this case since the very thin and flimsy Florida law preventing them surely won't stop the maniac. <g> Electors, BTW are chosen by the several political parties of each state...
Best,
