Just another attack on states rights. Looks like they were right back in 1789 to be fearful of being swallowed up by the more populous states...

Yes. They were absolutely right to avoid pure democracy = tyranny of the majority.

At this point in our history, we have cities and states declaring themselves ‘sanctuaries’ for illegal aliens - some allowing them to vote in local elections (which clearly means they won't be excluded from voting in national elections). These cities and states refuse to comply with federal law, and yet have an increasing input into federal elections because they count illegals in their census - and thus receive more Congressional seats. They are already overrepresented. Why in the world would it be OK to give them even more power by doing an end-around the Electoral College?

Leftists lay awake in bed at night, every night, thinking of new little ways to game the system and tip the table in their direction.

As Conservatives actually have lives, we’re at a distinct disadvantage.

All of the destructive stuff that is happening today the Left was chattering about 10+ years ago in the whacko places on the web where they hang out.
