Ohio Joins The Attempt To Shit on The Constitution and Eliminate The Electoral College

The Presidency is about Electoral votes decided by the states

If the states change how they decide, it is their decision

Well this group of losers called it quits so we will never know. Good luck next time losers!

In a statement released Tuesday, National Popular Vote, the group pushing for states to adopt the compact, praised the move by Oregon's state Senate.
"This is the fully constitutional way to ensure that every voter is politically relevant in every presidential election while preserving the Electoral College as the founders intended," John Koza, the group's chairman, said.

It doesn't matter what he says, it matters what the Supreme Court says.

Unless Congress gives it's consent of course.

Well, no, that's a separate issue. Constitutionally, Congress DOES need to agree to compacts among the states, but even if it does agree with this compact, the Supreme Court can still say that they're violating various rights of the people and overreaching their delegated powers.

Fat chance of that since they've been letting WTA slice all these centuries.

And I've already shown you, directly, how that disenfranchises millions of votes in any state, including the majority of its votes, including your own state.

Sorry but the C in SCOTUS does not stand for "cherrypickers".
 
The Presidency has never been about the popular vote.

President Trump won 30 of 50 states. You can cry about millions of extra votes in deep blue states like California and New York all you want.
If we had a national popular vote it would only encourage ballot stuffing in every state and corruption would win elections. Would you like it if deep red states threw out all their Dem votes and added more Republican ones?

Outside of a constitutional amendment, Congress has nothing to do with it. It would be between the state and the courts, just like with Voter-ID.
 
You don't seem to follow the idea. NO, "another state" would not choose the winner, the COUNTRY would choose the winner. Collectively.

No, because the overage mostly took place in CA. Therefore they would be making our choice for us if this law was ever reality.

AGAIN ---- nothing "unconstitutional" about " in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct". That specifically states that literally anything is Constitutional. It is unqualified, unlimited and wide open.

You cannot legislate that majority of a state will not be counted and say it's constitutional. What if we in Ohio decided to legislate that black votes will not be counted? Nothing unconstitutional about that as long as "legislature directed it" huh?

Too late for that. In 2016 in your neighbor Michigan (for one) the majority was not counted, and it was Constitutional. Interestingly in Michigan, state Democrat legislators had in the past arranged for its EC to reflect the popular vote proportionally, until later Republicans dumped it and went to WTA.

And that --- the majority not being counted --- also took place in my state, in Cecile's state, in Florida, in Wisconsin, in Pennsylvania, in Colorado, and in at least seven other states too, and they were ALL Constitutional because they all exist under the same clause of the same Constitution.

That's the turd that WTA plops out.

Oh really? You mean those states already do what these clowns were proposing; giving all their electors to whoever won the national popular vote?

Pretty close, yeah. They give 100% of their EVs to whoever gets a plurality within the state. Not even a majority.
Same level of Constitutional. Or to put it another way be careful what you wish for.

So your hugely important point that you just HAD to post about was that the asswipe who runs the group says it's legal and a great idea?

How very enlightening. And?

That's why I marked my post "Hugely Important"

:spinner::spinner:

Posting it implies that you're saying something you consider important and meaningful.

It wasn't.

I understand you were just being a sarcastic snot, you had to post your first snide comments because they were important enough for you to post them. So yeah, for whatever reasons I posted that, it was enough. Not that it was hugely or important, or meaningful in any sort of way other than to me. But is it important enough to hit Post....,, mmmmmm fuck I donno, I already type the shit out so .... .here goes.....

You are correct that I had to post because I thought it was important. I always think it's important to point out useless BS when I see it. You may not agree; other people do.

However, in this case, it's relevant to notice that your post actually had no real point to it. It provided no information that wasn't already known, nor did it express your opinion.

Oh, really? The guy fronting the push for the NPV Compact thinks it's a good idea? You don't say? That certainly puts a new spin on things.

Like I'm suppose to care that you can't discern why I posted that in response

As a matter of fact there is already a suit in the works by several states. Doesn't matter. Will the SC decide that the Federal Government has the power to force those States to change their laws on how they choose their electors? I don't think they will.

Dumbshits should realize it is a double edge sword and instead focus their efforts harder to get the voters in the counties of the states that they need to win, imo.

The court doesn't have the power to change the Constitution. From what I understand when/if they get enough states, they are going to ask Congress for consent anyway just to avoid any sense of impropriety.

Look at it this way. If it ever comes to pass, and some how you assholes win a popular election (LOL), all those Blue States will have to cast their EC vote for your guy(or gal [hahaha]), giving them a huge, I mean huge, EC landslide victory.
 
Ohioans might vote to ditch Electoral College. Who's behind the effort? That's a mystery

DemNazis...

If you cannot win fair, you need to change The Rules so you can cheat!

We are in a Civil War.

And The Dems are Invading this country from The Southern Border and attacking our Constitution in our courts and legislatures.
Of course Dems would support screwing over the results of an election and the will of the people. They are saying that if a candidate wins a state, the electoral vote will be changed to the exact opposite outcome based on how other people in other states vote. Tyranny at its finest.

But look at it this way, if the Trumpublicans win the popular vote, think of the bragging rights to the landslide victory in the EC the Trumpublicans would have. Faux's Anchor's would have on-air orgasms.

In terms of one state individually deciding, that might be true. In this case, however, it's being put forward as a compact that multiple states are signing on to.

No one's asking about "forcing them to change their laws", but I see how you're trying to twist this around so that leftists are just helpless victims being bullied and "forced" into doing things, instead of heinously sore losers tearing apart the fabric of the nation to get their way.

The Supreme Court is fully capable of striking down state laws on the grounds of overreaching their powers, and has done so before.

Only a leftist would think, "Look at it this way, YOU'LL get to cheat and take advantage of how we've screwed over the laws too" is an actual argument. I know this will make no sense to you, but not everyone thinks getting their own way is the be-all and end-all of what's right or wrong.

The states have the right and constitutional authority to determine how they choose their electors. If the states opposing this mechanism happen to win, what is the fix? Who has the authority to tell the states they do not have the power to choose their own electors and they must change the way they have decided?

Working within the system is not cheating. The EC will still determine the outcome. Both parties have the same chance of winning.

Trumpytarian's love to brag, democrats are short sighted.

Uhhhh nnnnnnno. Not when the Constitution already specifically delegates that choice *TO* the several states.

"The states have the right to do whatever they want. If I just parrot it over and over, it will make any evidence to the contrary disappear!"

Been answered. Repeatedly. So pretending that you didn't hear the answers - or, more likely, just not bothering to read them because you want to believe you're right no matter what - just tells me that you are, once again, trying to shout your delusions into fact.

I have no idea why your pussy aches and I doubt if anyone really wants to hear about it.

The "bottom line" is that states have the legal Constitutional right to apportion their EC delegates as they see fit.
