‘Real’ election occurs Monday — Romney still loses

Six Utahns cast ballots Monday in the presidential election that really counts — the Electoral College. Mitt Romney received all those Utah votes, but, of course, he still lost nationally. "Do I wish I were voting for the winner? Absolutely," said Utah Attorney General-elect John Swallow, one of the six Utah electors. "But do I stand in line and say as an American the election is over and I will support the president of the United States? Absolutely. That’s what we do in this country."
