Do I recall correctly that California passed legislation that awards its EV's to the highest Presidential vote getter nationally regardless of which way voters in their own state voted for President?

If so, Republicans shouldn't waste a dime on the national campaign in CA and concentrate only on House and Senate races. CA is either lost to the (D)'s as we have come to expect or it is a win by default if we win elsewhere.

No downside and no money wasted.

FReegards!

I think the stupid rule of sending votes to the majority winner takes effect only if enough other states pass the same stupid law. Good thing California can find new ways to keep lawyers busy.

That's all the rage among the fascist collectivist-controlled states, but they generally enact it with a provision that it only goes into effect when states with electoral votes totaling 270 or more pass the same legislation. That way they don't lose their influence until they can drag the entire nation down into the collectivist commie sewage along with them.
