Yay!
Let’s us pile (most) ALL OUR VOTES into fetid chunks of our biggest cities!!
Easy to control.
EASIER TO CHEAT!!
As an added bonus—THEY DON’T HAVE TO SPEAK ENGLISH!!
(What could POSSIBLY go wrong?)
I had a college educated friend tell me last year that the Electoral College needed to be done away with. She is a reliable Republican, not conservative enough for me.
I tried to explain how it works and how our fly-over-state would be ignored otherwise. She didn’t get it then. She “gets it” now.
How about this solution... let California, Oregon, Washington State and New York City secede from the union. They can have their pure democracy and we will continue to enjoy our Constitutional Republic.
Red states are not going to go for an amendment. There are a lot of them.
This is nothing more than sore loser noise. Ain’t gonna happen until Oklahoma turns blue.
Lmao
Without voter fraud she wouldn’t even have won the popular vote.
Cry me a river.
Excluding the overpopulated coastal states, as if the remainder of the required 38 states would ever give up their Presidential electoral powers...
Yes, you have to amend the Constitution to get rid of the Electoral College. Let’s see if they can get two-thirds of the state legislatures of the pass it—not a chance!!
Sorry but the founders were dead set against mob rule as a form of government and set up the EC to prevent a tyranny of the majority.
Government ethics should be mandatory in the public schools. Younger generations must be taught about the beauty of the electoral college.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.” - RONALD REAGAN
The only ones complaining about the electoral college are brainless snowflakes and brainless hollyweird celebrities. The electoral college is fine with the majority of AMERICANS.
At least that is a Constitutionally valid remedy if you really have a problem with the EC.
They’ll have to get 38 or 2\3 of the 57 states to agree-no way!
So do they want to do away with the Senate also? Same principal.
Dream on....
What I find hysterical is that these same Progressive Democrats loved the Electoral college back when they thought there was a “Blue Firewall” assuring Hillary’s victory. Their unspoken assumption was that ballot stuffing in big cities such as Detroit and Philadelphia would always assure that key battleground states went Democrat.
Got bad news for those idiots.
An amendment to end the electoral college, or enslave it to tje popular vote, would disenfranchise every smaller state in the Union, leaving control in the hands of the major metropolitan areas of the US.
Assuming basic sanity on the part of these states, such an amendment would never pass. After all, 2/3s of the states would have to ratify it.
Perhaps that is a big assumption, though.
Fine. Do away w/ the EC; just have it so each county is counted instead.
NOPE. The ELECTORAL VOTE setup ain’t broke just ‘cause
HITLER-Y CLINTON lost.
Even IF ya’ll manage to get it torpedoed; ya’ll will be
howling to get it changed back the next time a DHIMMICRAT
loses with your “new & improved” method.
This only comes out from Liberals when they lose the electoral college vote. When they win the electoral college vote as when B. Clinton won the electoral college vote but never got a majority, only a plurality - due to third party Perot. If they were not the hypocrites that they are, such results would have them demand a run off whenever a clear majority of the “popular” vote is not achieved. Who knows how it would have turned out without Perot on he ballot. Did the Dims want to know? No. The electoral college majority was fine with them, then.
