Very interesting.
I hope they're going to be transparent in how the 6 electoral votes in the State of Kansas are actually cast. Who does it ? Do they actually vote based on the popular vote ?

All states have long since chosen to use the popular vote to pick electors. Trump tried to upset this apple cart with his coup attempt though.

Right, but as far as I know, the results of how the electors actually vote is never shown in Kansas.
Maybe I just don't research far enough.

Republican Governor Revels in Biden’s First Big Win
https://2paragraphs.com/2024/02/repu...first-big-win/
Quote:
Reynolds referred to the act as a “blue state bailout” and wrote on Twitter: “I stood alongside 21 other Republican Governors to OPPOSE President Biden’s plan to use YOUR taxpayer dollars to bail out blue states like CA, NY, and IL.”
According to data from the Rockefeller Institute of Government, the state of Iowa “receives more from the federal government than it sends to Washington, D.C., meaning Iowans are not actually bailing out anyone.”
Note: None of the 21 other Republican Governors — including those who opposed Biden’s plan –refused the aid.

Thom Hartman today outlines a plan, an actual in-the-works plan he says, whereby the Rwpublicans can and will steal the election even if Biden wins the Electoral College. Basically it's a repeat of the 2020 scheme, in which the certification of the Electoral results is blocked and the thing is thrown to the House of Representatives, where the Republicans win. Relies on some sharp tactics that ought to be legally blockable but apparently aren't, for example speaker Johnson refuses to swear in some new Democratic Representatives. He's already done this with the new guy from New York. Seems there's no way to make him do it. https://substack.com/home/post/p-142066575

The RNC takeover by Trump begins, Ronna is now officially stepping down. Maybe she will call herself Romney-McDaniel once again after ceding control of RNC and its checkbook to Laura.
