Clinton urges Electors to Reconsider

By LINDA SMITHSON – December 4th, 2008.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton today continued her bid for the presidency with an unexpected plea for the nation's 538 presidential electors to cast their votes for her. Clinton, despite a bruising and narrow defeat after staging a "superdelegate rebellion" at the Democratic National Convention this August, never officially conceded her candidacy to her rivals.

"As we all learned too well in the year 2000, the President of the United States is not elected by a popular vote of the people, but by a vote of their chosen electors", Clinton's press release read. Continuing, "it is the duty of the electors to exercise their judgment in electing the best candidate for President, not merely to act as a rubber stamp for the will of the people. This is what the framers of the Constitution intended; I am clearly the better candidate and the duty of the electors is now clear."

Presumptive President-Elect Barack Obama, nominally having won a record 530 electoral votes to Republican Nominee John McCain's 8 electoral votes, commented "I respect Senator Clinton and have always respected Senator Clinton. But the straws that Senator Clinton is grasping are growing increasingly short. The voters have called out for change, and that change will not be stopped".
