text: For instance, in Texas, if you wanted to vote for one person, you'd vote for a slate of 34 Democratic electors that would be pledged to that person. If the electors won the statewide election, they would go to congress and that person would get 34 electoral votes, but who are the electors? The citizens have no idea. They don't know who picks the electors or who the electors are, it depends on the state. The voters can't always control who their electors vote for. It's not their decision.
