Say NO to the Popular Vote

[flewism]

There is no problem with the electoral college. If there is a problem it is with the states. you can win a state by 100 vote and collect all the electoral votes of the state, that is the law of the individual states, States can easily change their state laws and divide the electoral votes more closely to match there general elections. Then the only bonus for that's state general election winner would be the (2) senate electoral votes to give the less populated state more input on the federal elections. That founding fathers did not dictate that it be a winner take all in the state elections, but only devised a way for the states to elect the president.

The states will never vote to disenfranchise themselves. Liberals, in the throes of their liberal insanity, believe that New York and California can vote to take the vote from all of the rest of the states. The "popular vote" is only the vote of the lopsided coasts who believe that they have a right to tell everyone else how to live and who to vote for. After all, they know better than everyone else.

Of course And it is up to us to make sure that Democrats do not succeed in this attempt to rig the country just for them, and their immigrant vote stacking, minority pander, Muslim ass-kissing, gay-loving, affirmative action anti-white racism, globalist lunacy.

There are 5 children, 3 boys and 2 girls. The boys vote to rape the girls.

Democracy in action.

Which proves once again that democracy has flaws, but it is the best form of government yet created.

An informed population, able to discern right from wrong and how to cast their vote in the best interest of society as a whole, is necessary and sufficient to prevent such discrimination.

Which is why the right wing hates progressives, liberals, Democrats and democracy.

An informed population, able to discern right from wrong and how to cast their vote in the best interest of society as a whole,

Which is why Trump got 30 states, and Hillary only 20

I don't know if if it's correct or not, but I just saw a graphic on TV claiming that 68% of Americans favor abolishing the electoral college, and shifting to the popular vote. It said 89% of these were Democrats, and 46% Republicans.

I can easily see why 89% of Democrats favor the popular vote, but there is no reason for Republicans to choose it. The % of Republicans wanting the popular vote should be ZERO. The popular vote campaign is nothing but a ploy by Democrats to jam as many foreigners into the US as they can, legal or illegal, give their kids born here birthright citizenship, give them welfare benefits$$, and then protect them in sanctuary cities.

Why ? Becasue in return for this irresponsible recklessness, the immigrants then all VOTE DEMOCRAT. The idea is to bring in millions of these dirtbags from every hellhole country in the world, stack up the states with them and their Democrat VOTES, and eradicate the Repubican Party forever. The electoral college is exactly what PROTECTS us from just this sort of thing.

So for all those Republicans in the 46% (if the poll is true), who are OK with disposing of the electoral college, please get your heads out of your asses, and not fall for this Democrat scam job to destroy your party, and dump nutjob leftist ideology on the country, with no end to it.

Might as well make America a dictatorship if they want to abolish the Electoral College.

It matter no at this point because they lack the votes in the Senate and will never have the votes and most Statea would not support it except Blue States like Kalifornia!

Of course Republicans don't want to abolish the electoral college. They would never win another election if we got rid of it.

No other free nation on Earth has such a system. The majority is supposed to decide who runs their country . The will of the people. The electoral system takes the will of the people away.

Democracy, oligarchy, monarchy, they're all the same. Rule by the many, the few, or the one is of little consequence. It is rule by men. It is rule by passions and prejudice.

Which is why republicanism is the best form of government yet devised.

Wrong and in and of itself an echo of propaganda.

Simple arithmetic suggests your opinion (well, not yours); your echo of Trump&Co. suggests people in Red States voted as did you, and not every person in CA or NY voted for HRC.

What the right hates is Democrats, progressives, and liberals who are current trying to SUBVERT AMERICAN DEMOCRACY, by stacking the overall population with Democrat-voting immigrants and trying to remove the electoral college, which prevents them from getting away with just this type tyranny (as they tried to do in 2016 but fell short)

We must keep our electoral system the property of the AMERICAN people, not the people of the world, whom Democrats try to invite in, legal or not, and then protect in sanctuary cities.

The electoral system takes the will of New York away. The will of California is taken away. In fact, the entire will of the the country cannot be subject to the tyranny of two overpopulated, bloated, bloodsucking leech states. So, you are stuck with the electoral system forever more.

 

[Wry Catcher]

This is also why Democrats want to keep bringing in illegals and legalize them over time. Although they already have illegals voting fraudulently for them in every election. They could care less about them, just as they turned their backs on all the Democrat caused genocides (such as Syria) in the world. All these scumbags want is the votes, which would give them the power to transform the country into a psuedo-communist shithole such as Venezuela.

Not only do they not care about illegals, the Left doesn't give a shit about the country either, actually they hate America and have a "unique" take on its history.

A biddable kool-aid drinker ^^^

Q. Is he as dumb as he seems, or is he an agent provocateur

NOTE: Vote now, but your vote may not count, we employ a system we call the electoral college, and we will select each member of the college based on gerrymandered considerations.

Yup, a "dumb" man who bested 17 establishment republican candidates with name recognition, then went on to beat crooked Hillary who spent billions more and had the FBI, the CIA, and the corrupt media in her back pocket.

Yep, a biddable and dumb man, who once again in this ^^^ post demonstrated how easily he has been led by The Donald, and another man (mostly men) who echo the propaganda which fills the Internet, AM Radio and Faux News.

As I posted, democracy requires an informed populace, sadly 35% are not informed and incapable of sagacious thinking.

Most voters do not understand their vote matter on the State level and it was never the Founding Fathers intention to let the voter to vote on the President or the Senators and the House is the voice of the people.

With the Popular Vote people in California can override those thirty States that voted against Clinton and her supporters will claim it is the will of the people when it is the will of California instead.

Let a Democrat lose the popular vote because of Texas and watch the same people that want the Popular vote change their mind quickly...

and if the democrats won a few elections because of it, they'd defend it to the death.

you don't care about right and fair, you only seem to care about doing whatever it takes to stop the other side.

Cut ties with the neo-Nazis and all the other hate groups and maybe they`ll vote Republican. Anyway, are there other countries where the #2 vote getter wins the election?

Those other countries that let mob rule control the day are usually the shitholes of the world. High school popularity contests are fine for kids. IT is no way to run a country.

So, you supported Prop 8 in California where the will of the people was to determine that marriage was between one man and one woman, right? You thought that the courts should not have overturned a clear majority vote win, right?

I'm all for keeping the status quo, as is. The problem here is if the democrats would have won by electoral votes, they'd be all for keeping the Electoral College.

The whole if America doesn't live in New York and California. There are 300 million people in America. 40 million live in California and 19 million live in New York. So if you deduct the 59 million people. There are still 241 million people in America. Let's say half of those people aren't citizens or ineligible to vote. That still leave 141 million non California and New York residents to vote.

Your argument is the same lame ass argument Republicans use for keeping the antiquated electoral college around.

Even before President Bone Spur, I always believed the electoral college should be abolished. It makes no sense to keep it around and removes the will of the people.
