Trump's lawyers intervene in lawsuit to free electors

DENVER (AP) — Lawyers for President-elect Donald Trump on Monday filed documents to become involved in a lawsuit by two Democratic electors trying to be freed of Colorado's requirement that they vote for the winner of the state's popular vote.

Papers filed by Christopher Murray, a veteran Colorado Republican attorney representing Trump, contend the lawsuit "threatens to undermine the many laws in other states that sensibly bind their electors' votes to represent the will of the citizens, undermining the Electoral College in the process."
