    Some 3rd parties have ran ineligible candidates. If they actually won, the electors wouldn’t actually cast their votes for them, but the votes are counted and tallied AFAIK. Given these are parties that make the Green Party and Libertarian parties look like first parties, they’ve just been ignored.
    For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B3ger_Calero

    Notably, Colorado is one of the states that wouldn’t let Calero on the ballot because he was ineligible.
