He wouldn’t be the first Nevadan to figure out that California already runs his state enough.

That's why the Maoists are doing an end run around the Electoral College rather than a direct assault.They know that a Constitutional Amendment would get no more than...say...20 state legislatures to approve it.And of course those 20 state legislatures are gonna sign on to *this* effort...until the Federal courts declare “unconstitutional”.

This governor must understand that the NPV initiative is death to small states and he has clearly acted in the best interests of the State of Nevada. The Democrat Party is trying to persuade or shove their Democrat politicians to get on board with this effort. It’s bad for all small states, Democrat and Republican and the Democrats are lying as usual.

This is also an unconstitutional compact among states, but if small states like Nevada wise up, that question will never come up.

Called the Govenor’s office and thanked him for vetoing Assembly Bill 186. Suggest others do the same. I don’t usually call a Dem govenor, but he did the right thing and should be told.

Unusual but refreshing grasp of reality and original intent for a governor.

Good for him.

However, the ‘law’ in the various states will likely be nullified by the first real court challenge. It disenfranchises the voters in the various states in lieu of the national vote.

“Once effective, the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact could diminish the role of smaller states like Nevada in national electoral contests and force Nevada’s electors to side with whoever wins the nationwide popular vote, rather than the candidate Nevadans choose,” a statement via Sisolak reads.

Good God, a Democrat who gets it.

What made the Constitution palpable to the less
populous fledgling states was the inclusion of
the electoral system. Take that away and you take away
a key reason for the adoption of the Constitution by
those states. The contract will be broken and those
states should be able to leave the Union if they
so choose.

People need to stop celebrating this man. He didnt suddenly find a copy of the Constitution. He knows that if no one needs NV votes then there is no reason to send as much pork to NV.

Sometimes prayers actually work. Thank the Governor for this wise response to a Constitution-killing popular stupidity.

Hope not.
