"From the NYT Now's Morning Briefing Newsletter"

"These meetings of the Electoral College, convened in every state and the District of Columbia just shy of six weeks after Election Day, have long been little more than a formality."

"But the victory of President-elect Donald J. Trump, who lost the popular vote but is projected to win the most electoral votes, has thrust the Electoral College into the spotlight once more. The conclusion of American intelligence agencies that Russia tried to intervene in the election to harm Hillary Clinton’s campaign has only intensified the focus in recent days.
President Obama on Friday described the Electoral College — originally a compromise between those who wanted Congress to choose the president and those who favored a popular vote — as a “ vestige.” As electors gather in state capitols across the country, here is a rundown of what comes next.
Who are the electors?
In short, the electors are people chosen by their state political parties to cast votes for president and vice president. Electors can be state party leaders or elected officials; sometimes they are individuals with a personal connection to a presidential candidate. Bill Clinton, for instance, is a New York elector this year.
The number of electors each state has is equal to its number of representatives and senators in Congress — 538 in total, with those extra three electors coming from the District of Columbia.
What happens on Monday?
Electors will meet in their respective states, typically at the Capitol, where they will cast two votes: one for president and one for vice president.
They will then prepare what is called a “certificate of vote” with the results, which is then mailed or delivered via courier to the National Archives, where it becomes part of the nation’s official records, and to Congress.


===========================================
Do electors have to vote according to popular vote results in their states?
Not necessarily. At least one elector has said he will buck his party and not vote for Mr. Trump. Nothing in the Constitution, nor in federal law, binds electors to vote a particular way. There are some state laws that bind them to vote according to the popular vote outcome in that state; others are bound by more informal pledges to their party.
Under some state laws, so-called “faithless electors” who vote against their party may be fined or even disqualified and replaced. No elector has been prosecuted for doing so, but then again, almost every elector has voted with their party’s results in the past. The Supreme Court has not weighed in on whether pledges and the related penalties are constitutional.
Who counts the electoral votes?
On Friday, Jan. 6, at 1 p.m., members of the House and Senate will meet in the House chamber to count those votes. Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., as the departing president of the Senate, is expected to preside over the count, during which every state’s vote is opened and announced in alphabetical order.
Mr. Biden will then declare the winner based on who has the majority of votes — at least 270. (That has led, three times, to an awkward moment when the sitting vice president has announced his own defeat, according to the House historian’s office. That happened most recently in 2001, to Al Gore.)
And that’s it?
Not quite. At that point, Mr. Biden will ask if there are any objections, and lawmakers can then challenge either individual electoral votes or state results as a whole. If an elector has chosen to vote against state results, that is the moment when lawmakers can petition to throw that vote out.
Objections must be in writing and signed by at least one member of the House and one member of the Senate. If there are any objections, the House and Senate then immediately split up to consider them and have just two hours to decide whether they support the objection or not.
Both chambers will then reconvene and share their decisions; if both the House and Senate agree with the objection, then they will throw out the votes in question. But Congress has never sustained an objection to an electoral vote.
After any and all objections have been resolved, the results are considered final. The next step is to swear in the winner on Jan. 20.

Twisting tale of love

The RCMP in the Montreal Court House told me ...(2010)

[Re-posted June 12, 2016 by Don]

21/01/2010 12:06 PM


Just 2 months ago I met with a special police constable (trained to deal with such cases) of the Ottawa police force who concluded that I am not a threat to myself or to anyone else. He found me to be very astute.
He told me of another Ottawa police officer who has been ordered by a court to pay his wife a monthly sum of $2000.00. He cannot afford to do this, but he will be arrested if he does not do so. The problem he stated, comes from the two lawyers who want to sell his home.
I am not alone with this problem. The RCMP in the Montreal Court House told me that families are devastated daily by the court system.
One of my lawyers told me he could not attack his own court; but he knows I received a negative judgement from one judge that was nothing less than cruel.
Also you have to know that the first two judgements gave me exclusive occupancy of 6 Hazel Drive.
Denise ignored these judgments and with her lawyer was able to generate an eviction order (not a Judgement) that made me homeless. It was based on lies. It said she was the owner of 6 Hazel and that I was simply a tenant.
I am not living in the past, but very much in the present. My story, for the final trial Judge, is what will determine the end result. Getting there will cost us much of our wealth. I will send you a March copy of the Financial Post Newspaper, which supports my story: It is crazy for a couple to divorce at our age.

The Story of Don and Denise Wesley, who lived together, in a ‘Marriage made in Heaven’ on April 11, 1964

I forgot to tell you about Aril 3, 2014, at Tim Hortons, in Winchester Ontario.
 I was the only customer there, enjoying my coffee and the bowl of hot Chilli;  when a younger man [about 70] came and sat at the table next to me.
He told me he was an ex-RCMP Officer who investigated crimes. I asked and he gave me his name [Dave Gordon from Kemptville]
What he then told me without any question from me, was that my case was before the Crown Attorney. It is he said, a case of Embezzlement.
I asked him to stay and talk for awhile longer; he couldn't and said he would likely meet me again.
It is now October 31, 2014 and have heard nothing, and fear calling him to hear negative information from Him!

Thursday, October-31-13, written by Donald John Wesley

This copy is in the process of being written.     Sunday, November-03-13

The Story of Don and Denise Wesley, who lived together, in a ‘Marriage made in Heaven’ on  April 11, 1964; was declared ended by a Divorce Judgment made in a Court of Relationships, June 9, 2013. The Court of Relationships used laws made the hands of Men. Denise is the wife of Donald John Wesley. The Older Laws of Heaven, supersede the newer laws of men, and have withstood the test of time. [Quebec Court of Appeal Jurisprudence.]

This information I assume is based upon what I have read in The Canada Service Letter, I received Sept. 24, 2013, mentioned below.

The Canada Government Service Agent, said in the Letter I received Sept. 24, 2013,
"Your file shows that you and Denise Wesley lived together from April 11, 1964, to June 9, 2013 and during that time, you both contributed to the Quebec Pension Plan."

The above file, if it truly exists as written, is miss-leading, if not harmful, now, in future and even in the past. (Don Wesley)  In all cases, I lose everything that belonged to me, which is not justice at all.

I suspect there is someone else using my name.
Canada, therefore, as I see it, must act.

I have carried out my own investigation over the years since Denise left me, and have gather together, very serious and objective evidence, that several crimes may have been committed by Denise and those who assisted her. Crimes defined by the Criminal Code of Canada. Conspiracy being one; in two jurisdictions; Ontario and Quebec. 

I have already delivered, most all the files and folders of the evidence I have collected to the GRG –RCMP. Some files, too valuable to lose, I have kept with me.

 I delivered the documents - 13/03/2012.
They told me they would keep them and not investigate the crimes I found evidence for. PROS 2012170332  Simon-Pierre Sauvé,

Cst./Enquêteur/Investigator, Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Commercial crime unit – COLT, 4225 Dorchester, Westmount, QC.    H3Z 1V5.

I also had my Masonic Lodge Master, peruse the major files, this past Sunday morning, in Alexandria, Ontario. He is also employed as a GRC officer investigator. After reviewing all the documents, and having the relevant experience, he said to me: ” I can see why this complicated case, would drive you crazy, Don. It is above my pay scale level to comprehend. I will ask for help from lawyers who I know and get back to you very quickly”

I quickly wrote him an email when I got back home, saying “ Dear Yannick, please just remove the affidavits with miss-information involved, and you will see clearly, given the pay scale your paid in.” Signed Bro. Don Wesley’

In the incident records of the RCMP in Ottawa, sometime in 2010 I was received by an Officer name Whitaker, as I recall.  More info is available; My Son Doctor Steven John Wesley, Psychiatrists, was called that day.   

After a year, of serious study by Denise Prevost and me, we decided together to get married and did on April 11, 1964. We were married in House of Our Lord, under the laws of God, and she, Denise was given the name of her husband, Denise Claire Wesley. All being done according to the Marriage Contract, which both mature parties signed, before the marriage.

We lived together until the day of December 24, 2008, when I received an email Letter from her, saying, “that by the time I received her letter, she will have left me”.

Denise, having acted in this manner lost everything that Don had yet to pay her. He owed her $25,000.00 payable at any time. There are other aspects which I did not mention here, because of the need to be short, and easily understood.

I was expecting the gift of the Season! What I received was an Announcement that her awareness of me had stopped and her Love turned into Hatred.

Having studied enough of psychology I now felt that I was standing in the middle of a Forest and not knowing which direction to follow. I felt the fear of “fight or run away” at the animal level.
The contrast to the Birth of Jesus was shocking to the point of seriously harming my mental condition. The injury was sustained, by more and more actions of hers and her new friends.

‘Escalating-actions’ of abuse over a long period of time, is crime, as defined by the Criminal Code of Canada.

I am now asking, The Canada Government Service Agent, in a Registered Letter, to assign a special new team of investigators, to revisit this possibly un-conscionable court judgment.

I am inclined to think the Judge has been mislead by a series of seeming small errors, over the entire processing system that is used in the family court system.

The “Wesley’s” need the other Court with the power to declare a divorce or annulment, subject to verification, and if a theft by husband or wife is found, that the Judge must determine the method of reparation and order that it be carried out. In the case of property-title-conveyance, that the Judge must use the power to seize and evict those present. If it is found that some other actions by court officers have “misrepresented” one or the other party then the Judge must determine the guilt or innocence therein and deliver a Judgement, Subject to verification

I strongly recommend, that I be part of the team of RCMP investigators, given that I was Commissioned a Military Officer of the Crown in 1953;
And have also uncovered other very large crimes, in organizations, before.

I went to the RCMP who connected me with the Department of Revenue. At the end I was told by Inspector from the Department of Revenue, that the criminal, would never have been caught had it not been my analytical help. The criminal fine was $1,200,000.00; This occurred in 1990 I recall.

I was told to come back again. I am a Master of Many Crafts and a member of an Engineering Council.

Respectfully yours,
Donald John Wesley.
