Some states do bind their electors, but it's doubtful you will get a change when it really matters. There was an elector that switched for Bentsen over Dukakis in 1988 and it's happened a few other times. There was a Gore supporter who tried to convince Bush electors to switch but the Gore campaign took alot of heat for that. I found that hypocritical. If the argument is about how the founders intended elections to work, well the electors weren't bound back then, so why should they be now?
