Groups make $500,000 ad buy to rally GOP electors against Trump

Groups calling for the Electoral College to reject President-elect Donald TrumpDonald John TrumpSenate advances public lands bill in late-night vote Warren, Democrats urge Trump to back down from veto threat over changing Confederate-named bases Esper orders ‘After Action Review’ of National Guard’s role in protests MORE are targeting electors with a $500,000 ad buy in the days before they are set to vote, according to USA Today.

The ad is an abbreviated version of a video released earlier this week that shows celebrities like Martin Sheen and Debra Messing. It will air Saturday and Sunday on cable and satellite television in all 50 states.

Electors will cast their votes on Monday.

The ad buy was paid for by the groups Unite for America and Americans Take Action.

The effort to rally so-called “Hamilton Electors” faces an uphill battle. So far just one Republican, Chris Suprun of Texas, has publicly said that he would back someone other than Trump.

Having won 306 electoral votes on Election Day, Trump would need to lose 35 more electors to be knocked off the path to the presidency.
