More states consider working around the Electoral College
"In states including Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Mexico, legislators have said they plan to introduce legislation that would require their state's Electoral College voters cast ballots for the presidential candidate who earns the most votes nationwide, regardless of the statewide results."
These idiots want to ignore the will of the people of the state, and cast the electoral votes for the winner of the national popular vote?
"Hey, Nevada, what you want doesn't matter, you voted overwhelmingly for Smith, but the COUNTRY wants Jones. Tough luck"
"Hey, Ohio. doesn't matter if you voted 7-3 for Smith, California and New York voted 3-1 for Jones, so HE gets your electoral votes"
Mass stupidity, IMO.
