Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College

The concept of popular votes within a State determining the electors, while done by all States, isn't required.

I have been living in Texas all my life (67 years) and at no time, either in public school or through local news have I ever been asked to vote for an electoral college member or even told who/what they are. This still remains a secret to most of our Texas voters and my bet is this holds true for other states as well.

In this case, silence IS NOT golden.
:)-

Exactly. That some states require their EC members to be bound to their State's popular vote and other don't proves that the founding fathers felt most of the details about EV should be left to the States with procedural matters being common on a national level.
 
The Democrats are always pushing America towards totalitarianism.
Abolishing the Electoral College would do that.
It would give them permanent power.


That's the idea. They don't like any system that makes it fair for all.

Some idiots keep saying we are a democracy. Clueless. So hard to explain to some indoctrinated people why the electoral system is so crucial to giving all people a say in who represents them.


Think of it this way.

There is a small cul-de-sac with 5 houses and it's controlled by a neighborhood association. When changes will be made that affect everyone, there is a vote by the residents. The rule is that each of 4 houses get one vote but the 5th house is larger and can accommodate more people so that house gets 2 votes. However, the people in the larger house decided to cram 3 families in there so they outnumber all the other residents combined. The people in the 5th house want to ban pets, holiday decorations and want all the houses painted orange. As it is now, they get 2 votes, which is more than the others but everyone else still has a voice. If they switched to a simply popular vote with each person having a say, the one house would forever dictate how the others lived.

The majority can be an ass. California allows illegal aliens to vote and they also get counted in the census so also give them more electoral votes. They cheat every way possible as it is. If they switch to popular, our entire nation can be controlled by the votes of people who aren't even U.S. citizens. There are millions of illegal aliens in California, more than enough to sway any election. And they will vote for those who promised them more tax payer money.

This is what the Democrats want.

The Dems have gone so far left at this point that we are looking at a socialist one world government and countries will no longer have borders or sovereignty. Merkel has said as much and she is the same as many of the radicals here. Our constitution guarantees our rights and the government is supposed to have very limited powers. The left has whined for decades about the fact that our constitution limits them and stops their agenda. They want it gone and all our freedom and liberty goes with in. The useful idiots like the idea of government taking care of them and bringing down all the wealthy people to their level. They know nothing of history so they don't understand how and why socialism always leads to total misery and an oppressive government. Happens every fucking time but each generation has always had new idiots. This latest generation may the the worst yet because our liberal-controlled schools deliberately did not teach them history and instead filled their heads with bullshit about how wonderful socialism is.

They seek to do away with everything from our Bill of Rights to our fair voting system. If the left gets power again, they will never let it go. We are doomed.
 
This law is a major step in making the illegal alien vote a bigger factor; 3 of our largest states already have millions of criminal illegal aliens being lined up by racist gangs like La Raza and the Democratic Party to be trooped to the polls; California, Texas, and Florida. Total up the Congressional seats in those states.

It also obviously makes the Colorado citizen's vote irrelevant by tying it to the 'national vote', no matter what they voted for. This will get tossed out soon, I hope.

Do you have a reading problem? Or a lying problem. Colorado is not tied to a national voting at all. It's electoral college goes with the State Votes, not the national. Has been that way for a number of years. And so has 25 other states. And there was one case of Voter fraud. The State Republican Chairman intercepted his ex wifes mailin ballot and voted for her even though they were divorced and she was in another state. He got caught and got some jail time. So don't give me this crap that you have to be a Democrat to do voter fraud. But it's so rare it's not even worth bring up and this also includes California. So stop lying out your ass, there cupcake.

It's very rate these days and I do know it. Out of more than 4 million, there might be 3 or 4 individual cases. I doubt that has enough to sway any election of any type or kind one way or another. If it's higher than that then I suggest you start out by replacing your State Government as quickly as possible with recalls. Since this is also not happening, then......

Just because some idiot that loses an elections needs to justify their loss by making some outlandish claims to justify the loss is pathetic. It's even worse when a candidate does it during the election, sells the idea to some weak minded power base and wins anyway and still keeps harping about the false premise and you keep buying into the lie makes it even more pathetic. Now, I suggest you back up your claim. It's a little hard for me to prove mine since one cannot disprove a negative. But you make the positive claim and if that is true, it should be able to be proven. Get on with it. Otherwise, I chalk it up to misinformation for whatever reason a loser comes up with to try and win. Didn't work out so well this time around. Guess the lying has gotten so out of control that you believe it's the norm. Newsflash. Cupcake: it still isn't.

Why do leftists ignore reality and lie so much? Seriously. The reality is that much like the number of illegal aliens coming across our southern border, we really don't have any idea how much voter fraud we are missing , but we do know that plenty of people are arrested for it each year and that many states make it as easy as possible for people to vote fraudulently and fight like hell to make sure no one can audit their voting records to find out for sure.

Why do Democrats vehemently oppose an ID that absolutely positively identifies a person's voting eligibility status be required to vote if voter fraud isn't a problem? Oh that's right....

Still waiting for the proof of voter fraud, there, cupcake. So far, you are just repeating what your handlers from the Kremlin want you to say. As for Voter ID, I can get an ID that will pass muster for right around 500 bucks along with a birth certificate and a SSN that will pass every test except for a good background check. Voter IDs don't stop voter fraud. It's like your Wall. It just slows them down. So you do the voter ID to cure a problem that doesn't exist is like building a wall in an area that has no border crossing. Meanwhile, other problems are ignored that that money and effort could have been expended for better outcomes because some demented huskster sold you the bill of goods because it sounded so good att the time to fuel a fear that he created in the first place.

Now, you say that there is rampant voter fraud. Give proof.

Since you are not presenting the "Bill" then does it really exist as you say it does and mean exactly what you say it does? Or is it another political biased attempt to change the state law to make one party have a benefit over the other? Well, cupcake, that's exactly what it is. So if you want, present the bill instead of spewing your BS. Let's see the bill you keep lying about.

The me translate from rightwing nutjob to english for everyone else what you are saying. You can't stand it that the Voters passed something into law what they wanted and it was contested by a bunch of rightwing nutjobs and was the contesting was defeated because it would be against the will of the people and you can't stand it because you can't tell everyone else what they can and can't do. See, I just translated it. But, hey, it works for me.
 
This latest generation may the the worst yet because our liberal-controlled schools deliberately did not teach them history and instead filled their heads with bullshit about how wonderful socialism is.

They seek to do away with everything from our Bill of Rights to our fair voting system. If the left gets power again, they will never let it go. We are doomed.

Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College

Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College

The United States Electoral College,The Electoral College consists of 538 electors, and an absolute majority of 270 electoral votes is required to win an election.in both houses of Congress. Section 1 lays out the procedures of the Electoral College and requires the House of Representatives to hold a contingent election to select the president if no individual wins a majority of the electoral vote. Section 1 also sets forth the eligibility requirements for the office of the president, provides procedures in case of a presidential vacancy, and requires the president to take an oath of office.
Article Two of the United States Constitution - Wikipedia

The Electoral College was created because it took too long to count everyone’s vote. Today with modern technology that count can be counted overnight, not two (2) weeks later. It is time to END the Electoral College !!!

I have been living in Texas all my life (67 years) and at no time, either in public school or through local news have I ever been asked to vote for an electoral college member or even told who/what they are. This remains a secret to most of our Texas voters and my bet is; this holds true for other states as well.

In this case, silence IS NOT golden.

USA 1016 election
Here are the final numbers:

Clinton received 65,844,610 votes, or 48.2% of the total vote.

Trump received 62,979,636 votes, or 46.1% of the total vote. (That's a difference of 2.86 million votes.)

It was the Electoral College that got Trump into the White House, not the U.S. citizens vote.

I think it is time for the Electoral College to be looked at. The general public doesn’t even know what or who they are and yet they decide who will be President regardless of the popular vote.

What do you think?

Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College
 
This latest generation may the the worst yet because our liberal-controlled schools deliberately did not teach them history and instead filled their heads with bullshit about how wonderful socialism is.

They seek to do away with everything from our Bill of Rights to our fair voting system. If the left gets power again, they will never let it go. We are doomed.

Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College

The United States Electoral College,The Electoral College consists of 538 electors, and an absolute majority of 270 electoral votes is required to win an election.in both houses of Congress. Section 1 lays out the procedures of the Electoral College and requires the House of Representatives to hold a contingent election to select the president if no individual wins a majority of the electoral vote. Section 1 also sets forth the eligibility requirements for the office of the president, provides procedures in case of a presidential vacancy, and requires the president to take an oath of office.
Article Two of the United States Constitution - Wikipedia

The Electoral College was created because it took too long to count everyone’s vote. Today with modern technology that count can be counted overnight, not two (2) weeks later. It is time to END the Electoral College !!!

I have been living in Texas all my life (67 years) and at no time, either in public school or through local news have I ever been asked to vote for an electoral college member or even told who/what they are. This remains a secret to most of our Texas voters and my bet is; this holds true for other states as well.

In this case, silence IS NOT golden.

Weird 'logic' at work here. If those people don['t who their electors are , and think its some big giant secret n stuff, they shouldn't be allowed to vote in the first place, since they aren't doing their duty as citizens by learning what the hell it is they're voting for. They're idiots.

Bring back literacy and civics tests; they're not hard nor will they discriminate against anybody who aren't lazy dumbasses who don't really care about the political process in the first place. That will weed out half the problem all by itself.
 
It's very rate these days and I do know it. Out of more than 4 million, there might be 3 or 4 individual cases. I doubt that has enough to sway any election of any type or kind one way or another. If it's higher than that then I suggest you start out by replacing your State Government as quickly as possible with recalls. Since this is also not happening, then......

Just because some idiot that loses an elections needs to justify their loss by making some outlandish claims to justify the loss is pathetic. It's even worse when a candidate does it during the election, sells the idea to some weak minded power base and wins anyway and still keeps harping about the false premise and you keep buying into the lie makes it even more pathetic. Now, I suggest you back up your claim. It's a little hard for me to prove mine since one cannot disprove a negative. But you make the positive claim and if that is true, it should be able to be proven. Get on with it. Otherwise, I chalk it up to misinformation for whatever reason a loser comes up with to try and win. Didn't work out so well this time around. Guess the lying has gotten so out of control that you believe it's the norm. Newsflash. Cupcake: it still isn't.


Why do leftists ignore reality and lie so much? Seriously. The reality is that much like the number of illegal aliens coming across our southern border, we really don't have any idea how much voter fraud we are missing , but we do know that plenty of people are arrested for it each year and that many states make it as easy as possible for people to vote fraudulently and fight like hell to make sure no one can audit their voting records to find out for sure.

Why do Democrats vehemently oppose an ID that absolutely positively identifies a person's voting eligibility status be required to vote if voter fraud isn't a problem? Oh that's right....

They love voter fraud, and they love the dream of replacing citizens' votes with criminal illegal aliens' votes, so no sense in trying to have a real discussion with these types, they only know their Party is 'best'.

I am still waiting on your proving the rampant voting fraud. Instead of gumming yer fingers, get on with the proof. I can't prove it doesn't exist if it doesn't exist since one cannot disprove a negative. But you way it does exist so how about proving your Positive since that would mean it should have some proof it does exist. Or are just repeating what your Orange Individual 1 wants you to say and we all know just how truthful that one is.

Nobody cares what you're 'waiting on', you have less than zero cred like all the other Democrat spammers, and you're not here to have serious discussions, so no need to waste one's time bothering with your stupid demands, especially since it has all been posted already. Now you're just talking to yourself like a moron trying to pretend you have something. You're a big yawn, and the rest of us have better things to do than play your stupid games. Come up with a new gimmick, or run along and play 'Fake News Spammer' with your fellow Democrats.

The me translate from rightwing nutjob to english for everyone else what you are saying. You can't stand it that the Voters passed something into law what they wanted and it was contested by a bunch of rightwing nutjobs and was the contesting was defeated because it would be against the will of the people and you can't stand it because you can't tell everyone else what they can and can't do. See, I just translated it. But, hey, it works for me.

lol I'm not a rightwinger, dufus, another thing you know nothing about, since you can only parrot DNC rubbish, and can't think for yourself or learn new vocabulary words.

This is MY opinion and not the DNC. I am reporting how the Voters voted. You just don't agree with the voters outcome. That's okay. So, instead, you try to assassinate anyone supporting the voters. Good, tells me that you ARE a rightwing nutjob who is lying abut it.
 
We need to get rid of the EC.

They haven't followed the electoral college the way it was originally written in the Constitution. That's the problem, Penny.

The original intent of the Founders didn't last very long.

I don't want to get rid of it. I'd like to change it, though.

I'd like to see it percentage-wise. Meaning that if 10% of the vote goes to the libertarian candidate, then he oughtta get 10 votes.
If you do that it would get so milked-out that you’d never get a clear winner.
 
The Colorado Senate this week passed a bill that would award the state's electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the nationwide popular vote.

The Senate passed the measure along party lines in a 19-16 vote Tuesday, sending the bill to the state House for consideration.

The bill, known as the the national popular vote interstate compact, was sponsored by state Sen. Mike Foote (D), would require Colorado members of the Electoral College to cast their vote for the winner of the national popular vote.


Continued - Colorado Senate passes bill favoring popular vote over Electoral College


As some might already know, interstate compact agreements require approval by Congress.

Though, I think it's more disturbing than humorous that the Colorodo Senate doesn't understand this. There's a humorous line a lot of people use about wanting to make the electorate take a civics test before voting, this is unconstitutional, of course, but one might wonder if a civics test might be in order for those of us running for higher office. Particularly given the oath they take to protect and defend the Constitution. I wonder sometimes if they've even read the thing.

You can't make this stuff up. Ha.

The Democrats are always pushing America towards totalitarianism.
Abolishing the Electoral College would do that.
It would give them permanent power.
Horse.Hockey.
If the only way you can explain the Right's mistakes and failures is to blame it on a world full of Dems more powerful than you, you deserve to lose.
