Actually
Everyone’s vote would count as ONE vote for the candidate. Regardless of which state you live in
Nope. That would make us a democracy and not a republic.
Disastrous.
Mob rule.
No thanks.
We would still be a Republic with the Senate and House decided by the state
Only the President would be elected by popular nationwide vote
Lol
With a pure popular vote rural America would zero say in presidential elections... fact
Rural America will have less and less say in any elections as the years pass. That’s because Rural America is disappearing. As areas become more urbanized, voters shift from Republican to Democrat.
I live in a conservative rural area. Very white. Many people share the same attitudes towards the poor and urban that we see on this board. That’s because in rural areas poor people are lazy bums who milk the system. The crew that hangs around the town square all day are welfare mooches and drug addicts.
In the city, people are poor because the cost of living is high and wages are low. It’s poverty born of a system that continues to force taxpayers to subsidize corporate wages to keep prices low and shareholder profits high.
