I would agree to Eliminate the Electoral College only if Voter ID is implemented!


I wouldn’t. Do you really think Liberals are going to let a law stand in their way?

Well then I guess it’s a good thing more republican electors will actually be voting.

The founders decided that the electors would vote in their own states so that they would be free from undue influence, collusion and bribery which might prevail if they gathered in the capital to vote as a single body. If the democrat electors are trying to influence their colleagues outside of their states they are in conflict with the protections of the constitution. If they are trying to influence them inside their own states they are disregarding their own voters. They should be named and exposed as subversives.

they're unlikely to convince the necessary 37 Republican electors to reject Trump — the number they'd likely need to deny him the presidency and send the final decision to the House of Representatives. And even if they do, the Republican-run House might simply elect Trump anyway.

My problem with all these shenanigans is they demanded the Republicans and Conservative base simply rollover and accept everything they did for the LAST EIGHT YEARS. Forget about just the election and all the fraud they use to get the popular vote...let's really consider how they are acting and have acted!

There is simply no respecting the Rule of Law for these liberal, progressive, democrats and it is time to slap their treasonous butts down.

We need to go out to the 'petition' sight and start a 'petition' to strike back at them. We need to create a whole language (like their Political Correctness Speech) that focusses on the Free Speech of Treason and what it sounds like.

"...lobbying their Republican counterparts to reject their oaths.."

Oaths and honor mean nothing to these scumbag bastards.

Yeah, but you’d have still have liberals acting as election officials. If they’re breathing, they’re cheating.

“There is so much they don’t realize...”

And so much they know that just isn’t so.

The Computer knows every registered ID, so once you've voted, you cannot vote again

Voter ID will eliminate cheating

And these jerks were lecturing Trump about accepting the result just a couple weeks ago. The hypocrisy is incredible!

You almost want to say that the left must lack self awareness or a capacity for shame in order to be such hypocrites, but on second thought it’s probably simple arrogance or more precisely self-righteousness. When you’re on the side of the angels you’re not bound by such lowly constraints as being consistent.

That is the sad truth. They are playing with fire. They are comfortable, because they don’t see us out rioting. But this is an obvious red line for me, and I would take action.

You’re skipping over the secession part again.

Yup. Any elector that changes his vote should be hunted down and given a strongly worded letter. </tempered response>

There will also be a paper trail, once you've voted, there will be a paper trail of your vote so cheating is virtually eliminated

Only the delusional could possibly think the smaller states would give up their power so they could be ruled over by the big cities.
Not going to happen...but I suppose the unhinged left needs something to distract them from a reputation of the last 8 years.
Best election ever!!!
