11 Democrat states have formed a pact to sabotage the Electoral College

[rightwinger]

Democrats have always wanted to use New York and California to permanently disenfranchise the smaller states.

It is NY and California who are disenfranchised by smaller states

 

[ptbw forever]

There is nothing in the Constitution against it

That can be said for millions of things.

There is no such thing as a national popular vote.

So, all we have to do is dump a few hundred million people into smaller states and convince them that California and New York are always wrong and backward, and then we “win”, according to idiots like you.....

Nonsense. What CT is doing is complete disregarding the results of its statewide vote. That is not at all equivalent to a state counting its votes, and awarding electoral votes to the winner.

who won the state's popular vote in the last election? Clinton.

who won the nation's popular vote? Clinton

so exactly how does this new measure really change that?

I suggest you review the structure of our government...especially the bit about being a Federal Republic made up of STATES. The design is expressly to prevent the mob majority bully rule into which pure "democracy" always descends.

Would having the president be elected by the national popular vote suddenly turn the country into a pure democracy?

Rent a Mob...

there would be no law... mob rules..

So it is only the way the president is elected that keeps us from mob rule? Really? How Congresspeople are elected doesn't matter, how judges get into office is unimportant, how laws are passed, how amendments are added.....the electoral system is the only thing standing between a representative form of government and mob rule?

The US Constitution and its approved amendments are LAW. Any effort to subvert that law is TREASON.

There is a reason each of our states have representatives for each designated region and those representatives are who is entrusted in the legislation of laws.. The whole US is built on the same footings as our electoral college for the president.

I see you failed basic civics...

Connecticut To Give Its Electoral College Votes To National Popular Vote Victor

Connecticut voted to give its Electoral College Votes to the national popular vote victor. The state Senate voted 21-14 on Saturday to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which includes 10 states and the District of Columbia. The state House passed the measure last week, 77 to 73. California, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and the District of Columbia have already signed the accord.

This might give the Corrupt Democratic Party permanent control.
With permanent control the Corrupt Democrats will be able ignore the laws and the constitution and nobody could stop them. What do you think will happen to America if the Democrats are undefeatable?

If this keeps up, Trump will have no path to defeat Hillary.

Don't worry, I'm sure Vladimir will be there to assist again.

Grow a brain cell, inbred.

Lol, it's ironically funny when a tRumpkin calls someone else dumb.

No, the irony is that I am a Trump supporter in the first place. A millennial who grew up more annoyed of Trump than anything, and who couldn’t stand his early campaigns or his TV show.

Which is why you idiots don’t have a prayer in 2020, with or without these pathetic gerrymandering substitutes.

Here's why this is a bad idea.

Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia, and Tennessee all agree to give their votes to the GOP, regardless of the state outcome, in perpetuity.

That's what will happen. Republican states will simply ignore voters and give all delegates to whomever they please.

We'd note this as the official end of democracy. What comes after would be ugly. Again I think it past time to split the US into 2-4 smaller countries. Conservatives have gotten to a point they will cheat or simply ignore elections now so let them go form their new Hillbillies-R-Us-Land. Their states combined won't amount to much of an economy and they'll be happy all making minimum wage of $7.50/hr. They can also force women to have children which they are dying to do. But the point is they'd have their own shithole to fuckup as they see fit. No more blaming anyone else for their failures.

The blue states combined have a huge economy and are really the engine that drives the American economy so breaking off into a smaller country will in fact mean that economy is concentrated and benefits a much smaller but much more productive populace.

It's time isn't it folks? We had a good run, let's move on and split the country up before cons really lose their shit and demand to impose their lifestyle on everyone else permanently.

LMAO! That’s the funniest fucking thing I’ve read all week. Good job.

[Blackrook]

The Democrats lose one election because of the Electoral College, so like the mind-numbed robots they are, they wage war against the Electoral College system. It never occurs to them that it could easily have gone the other way.

Funny;

Another idiot who failed basic civics..

Mob Rule by a few select population centers is why we have regions in each state and why each region gets equal representation as any other region indifferent to its population..

Its what keeps the hand out gimme crowd from imposing their dictates on the rest of us to give up our wealth and food to them because they say so... F**K your socialist mantra..

[theDoctorisIn]

Here's a challenge:

Make a logical, argument for why we should use the electoral college without mentioning "democrats".

Tallies for record keeping don’t constitute a national popular vote, dimwit.

Your problem is that your “that” doesn’t exist, and never has.

Do you even understand how radically different this country would be if we had ever given a shit about a national popular vote? There are several 100 year old elections that still wouldn’t be finished.

Wrong:

As state CAN NOT GIVE UP REPRESENTING ITS CONSTITUENCY. This is like telling your constituents that you don't give a fuck what they want your going to tell them where their votes are going to go.. Talk about disenfranchising your own for the good of the democrap party..

How long before those in power are boiled in oil and feathered.??

As I look at the law, they have no power to give a states votes to the popular vote without constitutional convention to change the process..

 

[Billy_Bob]

Here's a challenge:

Easy;

I live in fly over country.. A popular vote would allow those in cities to dictate how I live, and what wealth I could keep without giving my region an equal vote and say in that law making. Thus without the electoral college the majority of the land regions of the US would be slaves to the few major cities and their hand out mentality.

The Founding fathers were wise in their design even though it took them a few years to figure out how it all would and could be manipulated..
