“States select electors by POPULAR VOTE.”


True enough, but they are not Constitutionally required to do so. States aren’t Constitutionally required to even hold an election for President. Bottom line, a state’s legislature has the power to choose its Electors.

Exactly right! We live in a constitutional Republic, not a democracy. And there’s a reason the founders didn’t want a democracy (mob-ocracy).
