Lovely, Trump will get Nevada, ME and CO’s EC votes regardless of how the citizens of those states actually vote in 2020... AWESOME.

So, they can just vote away the Constitution. Well, give them another 20 years and they will be talking about, “Remember when we had a Constitutional government? Those were really the good old days.”

Not yet though. And this vote is as useless as Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer sharing their single brain cell to come up with a good idea.

People in far away states shouldn’t get to decide for us who we want to be president.

- The twelve legislators just voted to possibly overrule the will of 1.5 million registered voters who they claim to represent in favor of whoever California and New your voters want... Apparently.

This is unconstitutional and it needs to be knocked down NOW. The day after a close election is not the time to fight this. If it came down to it, it would make the Bush/Gore Florida recount battle look like a game of checkers with grandpa. Do we want Roberts picking the POTUS? It was just blue states now but now have a blue leaning swing state. Fix this now.

I believe the logic is that, these are normally blue states. So, in 2020, the popular vote goes to Trump we’ll say. Now the Electoral votes of all those blue states that passed this go to Trump.

On an aside, aren’t all these states joining into...a confederation with the express intent of subverting the constitution...?

It is unconstitutional and does not matter. Nevada is a definite place where martial law must be implemented.

Barbara Lett-Simmons in 2000 disenfranchised a third of DC voters, because of “colonial status”, i.e. her tantrum because Gore LOST.

They will be sorry they opened this can of worms. It will be delicious when Trump wins the 2020 popular vote and all these blue/purple states go to him. Doh!

[These people don’t seem to care if they destroy our republic]

They know many of the 30-and-under (40-and-under?) crowd don’t fully understand what is happening and why.

It’s what they count on.

Putin must laugh himself silly each night as Democrats/Leftists destroy America from within.
