How many electoral votes does Trump ultimately end up with?

So Donald J. Trump was elected 45th POTUS with around 306 electoral votes, but those aren't codified until the electoral college votes on December 19th.

What if this is the year the election gets thrown into the House? Surely we'll see more than one faithless elector this year, right?

Anyway, there's a poll to follow. Curious what others think and we can see how it all ends up soon.

(This time it's public.)

I bet he loses one.

And then Trump hounds that person for the rest of his life.

60% of states have cast their votes. Not a single switch yet.

Colorado elector removed when he tried to vote for Kasich instead of Clinton. An alternate will vote instead.

A Clinton elector in Maine voted for Sanders instead, but was forced to rescind after being called out of order.

So HRC is going to lose more faithless electors than the Donald.

So Powell gets the most electoral votes of any non-major party nominee since George Wallace.

Apparently that was a part of the "Hamilton Electors" plan that only Washington electors ended up participating in.

Others tried but their efforts were stuffed. Other than the two other R electors in Texas.
