Four Democrat "faithless electors" voted for Republicans

When the electoral college convened yesterday to vote, three electors in Washington state, pledged to Hillary Clinton, actually voted for Colin Powell. And in Colorado, where by law electors must vote according to the statewide popular vote (which Hillary won), one Democrat elector voted for John Kasich, the Republican governor of Ohio and who ran for the Republican nomination for this election.

There were two other Democrat electors who voted for someone other than Clinton. In Washington state a fourth elector voted for a local American Indian gentleman and in Vermont an elector voted for Bernie Sanders.

There were two Republican faithless electors, both from Texas. One voted for John Kasich and the other for Ron Paul.

So Republicans garnered more faithless-elector votes from Democrats than they did from Republicans.
