According to the Constitution, there’s no such thing as a false elector.

I don't think you understand what's happened or what is meant by the term "false elector." The electors for Michigan had already been chosen and certified the actual results of the popular vote. These electors were straight-up fake. They weren't chosen as electors via the normal system; they were simply GOP folks who lied in writing.

Try reading the article before commenting next time.

I realized I was mistaken, deleted my comment, and then saw your reply. You're right, and I'm sorry.

Fair enough. Thanks for correcting yourself and your honesty.
