This is how Clinton can overturn tables and become America's 45th President by Thisis2raw(m): 1:38pm On Nov 12, 2016
- It seems that there is a tiny glimmer of hope for Clinton, more like miracle if tables turn on December 19

- Electors from all states in the United States will meet to vote for the president- if they chose Clinton instead , then, that is the miracle that will propel Clinton to the Oval Office

- Clinton won the popular vote while Trump won the electoral vote

There is a ray of hope for the majority of American voters who cast their votes for Hilary Clinton at the just concluded American Election.

Clinton won the popular vote by a margin of 200,000. Unfortunately, her rival, Trump, won the 290 electoral votes to Clinton's 228- becoming America's 45th president.

For a majority that is dissatisfied with a Trump's presidency, there is a glimmer of hope- that chosen electors of the electoral college might vote against Trump on December 19 in their state capitals.

If a handful of these electors vote against Trump or decide not to vote at all, then America would have to revisit its constitution- and probably, give Hilary a chance at the Oval office.

As it stands, to overturn tables, Clinton would need 20 electors to go rogue and vote for her. It has never happened but it is a possibility.

Though faithless electors are banned in 29 states, such a scenario of electors going back on their earlier decision is not totally unheard of.

A rogue elector will normally be fined for changing their mind, a small fine that is the only thing that probably stands between Clinton and the White House.

So far, protests have broken out with anti-Trump supporters engaging the police in running battles.
