    So Hawaii was a TOTALLY different case for a few different reasons:

    1. By the time the electors needed to be submitted, they legitimately DID NOT KNOW who won the election. So they submitted two slates of electors, one for Kennedy, one for Nixon, with the proviso that only the slate for the winner should be counted when the tabulation happened in early January.

    2. BOTH slates formed in the Hawaii '60 election were official slates chosen by the state. They weren’t just a made up slate selected by god knows who.
