Intro: Missouri's electoral college voted unanimously for John McCain and Sarah Palin Monday.
Joshua Skurnik (SCUR-nic) has more from Jefferson City.
| Actuality: APPL.WAV |
| Run Time: 00:09 |
| Description:
"President of the United States, for John McCain". "Nat. sound applause" |
That was family and friends applauding the eleven members of the Missouri Electoral College.
The applause came after each member waited to sign the many copies of the ballot.
Governor Blunt's General Counsel Lowell Pearson says the redundancy is a formality.

| Description: As you might guess in 1790, when the constitution was ratified, getting documents from Georgia to Washington D.C. was a little more problematic than it is today. |
Pearson said he wished the college well for the next four years.
