Some states have passed illegal laws that "force" the elector to vote the same as the majority, which is against the 12th amendment.

"Backers of Hamilton Electors are also preparing a wave of lawsuits challenging 29 state laws that purport to bind electors to the results of the statewide popular vote. These laws have never been enforced or tested, and many constitutional scholars believe they conflict with the Founders? vision of the Electoral College as a deliberative body. Courtroom victories, they hope, will embolden other electors to join their cause."
