As I understand the electorial college system, once the electors vote, that is it. They are not really bound by anything, including the vote total. They could have as easily have voted for Kerry as for Bush. They only pledge to vote according to the popular vote outcome.

If a judge were to hand down a decision to correct the vote count, how can he force the electors to change their mind?

It is another case of an election stolen. Ohiorida
